Happy Thanksgiving!
For the first time in 3 years we had a big family Thanksgiving! We went to Grandma and Grandpa Greenberg's house, where we celebrated with them, Brandon (who came in from Texas), Jeremy, Great-Grandma and Great Grandpa, and Uncle David and Aunt Marcy.
Ethan found a new favorite food: pumpkin bread. He nicknamed it "the brown stuff". We are very thankful for our family this holiday season!
Grandma made quite a feast!

Hats
Now for those of you not on the west coast, In n' Out burger is a great fast food burger chain out here. We occasionally go for a treat, and last night was one of those nights. Ethan loves to watch the "makers" (aka the burger flippers), and yesterday they gave him his very own hat. He is SO proud of it! Not sure that this suggests about his future career path, but at least he is happy!

It has been a while...
This is what we have been up to....
1. Halloween
Ethan had a great time this Halloween. At his school, they all made firefighter costumes and had a little Halloween parade.
In the evening, we went trick-or-treating. Ethan dressed up as a pirate. He went to many more houses than last year and seemed to really enjoy it. He particularly loved his costume, which was a gift from Aunt Marcy.
Also, Jason and he had a fun time carving a jack-o-lantern from the pumpkin we picked a few weeks back.
2.Chicago
Ethan and I headed to Chicago last weekend. It was a last-minute trip, as tickets went on sale and it has been awhile since we've seen gramma and grampa Ferschl.
We had a nice visit, and luckily the weather was not too cold yet. We enjoyed seeing the fall colors and checking out some huge pumpkins at the Chicago Botanic Gardens. We also celebrated my mom's 67th birthday.
3.House hunting
We have been looking for a home to buy for a little over a year now, and I think we might have found the house. We are in contract on a place near where we are living now, in Kentfield, CA. Our inspections are today and tomorrow, so we are hoping all is well. If so, we close just in time for Christmas. But we wont move until February, as the current owner wants to rent it back until then. Fingers crossed!
