Thanksgiving

Well, Thanksgiving didn't exactly turn out as we had anticipated but everything happens for a reason.  Wednesday morning Ryan woke up with a fever again, we figured he never really kicked the virus.  To save everyone from a rough night we drive up to Westlake Thursday morning.  My sister was already there along with my brother who surprised everyone (as usual!) and my Uncle John and Aunt Karen who were visiting all the way from Ottawa.  Emmy was of course the center of attention and immediately latched onto Uncle Marc.  No surprise!  Poor Ryan was just having a rough day and night.  So we ate and Josh and I took turns holding Ryan trying to keep him calm.  He woke up at 11:30p with a fever of 105.  We threw him in the car right away and went to the ER.  Jules came along too for support.  We got there and his temp had reached 105.5 and he was vomiting everywhere.  Pretty damn scary.  They did every test imaginable and were finally able to determine he had a UTI that had likely spread to his kidney and possibly his blood.  We were admitted to the hospital immediately and spent the next 4 nights there :(

Before our traumatic trip to the hospital I managed to capture a few of the more happy moments.

It would not be a holiday at my parents house without a little piano playing with animal hats on

Marc and Emmy made everyone turkey masks
