Thanksgiving 2009

Ok, ok... so it's December and I'm just now getting back to the blog duties. I think partly due to the amount of pictures that were taken over Thanksgiving week! We were in Houston for the week and got to visit with lots of family, see some surprise visitors from Brazil, try rice cereal for the first time, eat turkey, and attend Ava's Baptism. So... here was the week in pictures. I'll try to narrow down as much as possible!

Part 1: the {FUSON} family

Bridgette meets her Great Mamaw & Papaw for the first time!

She enjoyed Papaw talking into her ear

My cousin Blair and I

The cousins (that were there) lined up in height order.

Part 2: the {BLOEM} family

The first night Tia Marthi got there, Bridgette was ALL hers :)

Oh yea... this was her trying to go to bed... yea right!

YAY! The girls are together again... and nice hats Vovo!

Ava and Bridgette try rice cereal for the first time! (with matching bibs of course)

Bridgette wasn't too sure the first time, but she seems happy with rice cereal the next day!

Lots of family! Renata, Paulo filho, Vovo, Bia, Pedro, Christina, Tia Stela & Tio Paulo

{Stela and Paulo were our surprise visitors!}

More family :) Bob, Poppa, Me & Bridg, Great Papoo, and Mimi

Ava's Baptism: Ava with Cliff, Sandra, and Christina

*note: Ava is totally asleep! that's right... she slept through the whole thing! :)

The family is just getting bigger!
