Thanksgiving!

 We were very lucky to have our friends, the Schecter's join us for Thanksgiving this year! They are in the process of moving from CT to WA where Matt will now be stationed. We first met them in Guam and then we were stationed in CT at the same time as them too! We haven't seen them since we left CT in April 2020.

The kids really enjoyed playing together, their son Holden is 9 and our kids loved having him around! Especially since he enjoys building with Lego! We also had them paint some rocks for our front yard.

The kids helped us play Ticket to Ride, we enjoyed cuddles on the couch and lots of play time!

Here is a video of the kids being goofy when they are posing for pictures.

Here is another video with Avery trying to get the dog's attention. She really wanted to throw balls for their dog, Duke, but when she was on the ground with him, he kept trying to get the ball from her before she threw it. She also took a really long time to throw the ball!

And one last video of the kids saying goodbye when Jess, Matt and Holden left for their next destination. They were able to stay for two nights and it was so great to spend time with them and catch up. But at the same time it was too short of a visit! The kids really wanted Holden to stay longer!!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with our friends and hope to see them again before too much time passes!!
