This Thanksgiving we traveled back to CA. I went early to spend some time at home with my brother's family and parents. Then we all headed down to Santa Clarita to meet up with daddy and celebrate Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving dinner was quite unique. We were invited to our friend Cameron's BBQ restaurant. He runs the joint and wanted to cook us all dinner. So we joined him and his family and had the place to ourselves. All the kids had fun running around a giant empty restaurant. The food was amazing...he totally spoiled us. Daddy favorite food is BBQ so he was in should I say HOG heaven eating all you can eat ribs. I don't think he even touched the turkey or the sides. Grammy being grammy brought crafts for the kids and then gave them all Christmas jammies...
After dinner we headed to the coast for a couple of days. We celebrated an early Christmas together in the hotel and a Boschman Christmas isn't complete without some little program. So Grammy had the kids sing Christmas songs to a cd and then read them the Christmas story.
W & Y splashed in the cold Pacific water. The waves were hugh and magnificent. Our intentions were to stay dry but the boys couldn't resist and we did end up walking back to the hotel all soaked....
Grammy had made reservations for a train ride to a Christmas Tree Farm. It was so festive and the McClean family was able to join us. It was an old train and I think it's top speed was 2 mph (JOKING) so we were able to see all the scenary, and then of course Santa boarded the train to hand out candy canes. The boys are really forming tight bonds with their cousins and it was so fun to see them enjoy each other so much. What a way to end the wonderful trip and start the Christmas season.
