Papa and Meemaw's Visit

After a fun day touring San Francisco we headed to the beach for some tide pools. It was very cold (at least for California) but we bundled up and were able to see starfish, sea anemones, crabs and even a large group of seals.






After our adventure on the beach we had a picnic overlooking the ocean...


While we were picnicking John had a surprise visit from a mole that was trying to surface right where he was sitting. After a few surprising bumps, John decided to move so he didn't get bit in the rear. It was quite amusing...
The next day was Thanksgiving. Emma made centerpieces for the table and was a great help getting the table ready...
A pre-meal nap......what else is Thanksgiving for?


Yummm!!!! Think we had enough food to feed a small army. Everything turned out and we ate till we were going to burst...



I don't think I got any photo's but we once again got up for Black Friday....ALL of us, including the kiddos. This was Emma's 5th year out shopping early in the morning. This was a tradition started by Meemaw that we haven't broken and it was very fun being able to go out with her again.

That afternoon we headed to Stanford's campus for a tour.




And then some Christmas decorating.

We had so much fun during Papa and Meemaw's visit. Thanks for coming to visit us!! Can't wait for next time....
