Giving Thanks and Baby Camden


We are unusually thankful this year because for the first time my parents (Grandma and Grandpa Hanson) came from Salt Lake to spend Thanksgiving with us! They have hosted every year at their home but this year Uncle Jarom and Aunt Liina are back in South Carolina doing their residencies and the other locals spent Thanksgiving with their in-laws. We LOVED having my mom and dad here! After Thanksgiving We took them on our traditional Lake CDA cruise and light show to the North Pole where Santa waits in his work shop to greet the children by name (the crazy things we do in the Northwest!)
And, of course, we watched movies! Lots of them!



During the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, my friend Jessica Albrecht who has long-awaited a baby boy, got a suprise call that they had been chosen for a baby that had been born in Charleston, South Carolina. Their son was born in the same hospital that the afore mentioned Uncle Jarom is doing his residency. (too random to be a coincidence) Another bunch of miracles ensued over the next few days as baby Camden joined the Albrecht family in a way no less miraculous than a complicated delivery! What a blessing to watch this process unfold and see the way Heavenly Father guides us every step of the way. He is surely in every detail.
