We spent our Thanksgiving at my Uncle's in Seattle (actually he lives in North Bend which is about 30 min east) and we definitely spent sleepless nights with a teething baby, who just didn't want to sleep in a new, strange place . We were lucky enough that my parent's were there with us and were nice enough to take him a few times during the night (thanks mom and dad).
Even though the nights were a little rough we had a great time with family. We brought our nephew Marcus with us he is 10 years old (he is Jesse's sister son) . I have a cousin Sal who is 9 and the two boys met at our wedding. They spent that day together and still talk about each other all the time, both telling their moms that they are "related" so we thought it would be fun to take Marcus with us so they could spend the week together. They got along pretty good too (as good as two wild boys can spending 24/7 for 5 days)
Jesse and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary there and left the boys at the house and headed to downtown Seattle where we went to Pikes Fish Market, had a yummy lunch and saw the space needle.
My uncle is a fabulous cook and we ate very well all week! For Thanksgiving we had my dad's famous homemade raviolis, my uncle's wonderful chipino (an Italian seafood soup) and turkey. It was so good!
We took my brothers, Charlie and Marcus to a place called Snoqualami Falls on Thanksgiving. Here are some pictures from there. It was beautiful!
