Burla Adventures

Thanksgiving 2016 was phenomenal. Boyd and I traveled to Atlant and then Wisconsin to join the rest of the Ramsey crew for a giant sleep over and celebration at Grandpa and MiMi's. It was wonderful. We even got to see part of our Colorado family. We had so much fun walking dogs, playing at the park, playing family games, going to the Milwaukee Bucks game (Grandpa Ramsey up in heaven must have been smiling down) and much much more. I really cannot put into words how wonderful and full this trip was. Much to be Thankful for.

The Ramsey Thanksgiving 2016 Crew

Some schoolwork. Conferences pre Thanksgiving Break.

Growing up.

I don't think the Pilgrims had the luxury of a bow.

Readers Theater at school before their Thanksgiving Feast.

First stop on our way to Thanksgiving was Atlanta for me to race a 5k/

Fountains near the Olympic plaza in Atlanta. They had a fountain show to the Olympic music. It was pretty cool.

Anyone missing an ornament?

Outside the Coke factory.

Post race Aquarium visit. Thanksgiving day was the perfect day to visit-empty. So much space and time on the glass, it was fabulous. Looks like Boyd was in a submarine here.

Jellyfish

The tanks were beautiful.

Boyd liked the sheeps head fish that is black and brown.

Absolutely amazing...

Cousin and Aunts and Uncles fun begins.

Dabbing at the Bucks game. Mimi missed her chance when we were on the Jumbo-tron

Great cheerleaders.

A buck and apparently a unicorn

Relaxing

Silly action shots

Pancakes with Luci

Reading and snuggles.

Love the awe in Miles as he looks at Boyd.

Peanut came out after most of the guests had departed.

Visiting "the real Santa". Boyd said he thought this one was the real Santa because his beard was real.

Have you been nice? Boyd: I don't know...

Boyd didn't want to be the only kid to visit Santa. Miles didn't want to go (he is scared of Santa and all things costumed) but Boyd knew a way to get him to go. We were all ready and suddenly Miles wanted to come at the last minute. As we waited in the car Boyd fessed up and said, "I told Miles Santa gave out toys." We said Boyd, you know not until Christmas, why did you tell him that? His answer, " I knew it would make him come." Luckily he did have candy canes and was the nicest Santa.

Boyd and my dad are alike. They love trinkets and treasures. Boyd always comes home with unique items from Grandpa. The latest is a battery powered am radio. I found Boyd listening to a football game.

Boyd asked early in the trip to ride the tractor but so much was going on. It's a good thing we were able to stay an extra day for the tractor, playing in the basement, one on one and a trip to Brennans.
