Our Thanksgiving

Thursday

Thanksgiving morning was a rather interesting one. I woke up and began cooking my part of Thanksgiving dinner, and spoke these words, which will not soon be forgotten, "You could throw the potato peelings in the garbage instead of putting them down the disposer."

Then Craig spoke this infamous word, "Meh!"

All of this led to a clogged sink, which eventually led to this:




But we still managed to get all of our food prepared, get everyone out the door and we were only 20 minutes late. I thought that was rather impressive myself ;)

We had to try hard to be on time because we had the turkey. Well, we had the cutest turkey.



Snacking on some appetizers




Carving the Turkey. The actual turkey that my parents cooked.



Time to eat.



Look at the cute place cards.



We love eggnog!





After dinner fun and games!



Big H built this all by himself!



Look at Baby M's cute smile.




While waiting for our belly's to have room for pie we all enjoyed the annual viewing of Planes, Trains and Automobiles

After some pie, and a bath for the boys, it was time to for the kids to receive their Christmas pajama's. This is a tradition Craig and I started last year.



I have never seen two boys so thrilled over pajama's. They loved them! That's why we made them out of fleece, and that's why we fringed the bottoms. Thanks for your help with making the pajama's Grandma A! These pictures say it all! It was very much appreciated!



Go give Baby M his pj's.



Now lets get a picture.



What a great Thanksgiving! My Grandparents joined us as well, but they did a good job of avoiding the camera.

Friday

We put the boys down for bed at Grandma's and Grandpa's house so Craig and I could take part in some Black Friday Shopping.

We got some awesome deals, and most of our Christmas shopping done. Then we enjoyed a nice relaxing Friday morning. Thanks for watching the boys Grandma and Grandpa A!

Saturday

we anxiously awaited a visit from Craig's sister Shay, her family, and Grandma and Grandpa S.




Grandma and Grandpa S took all of us to Jumpin' Jacks. We had so much fun!







Give Grandma five!



It was so great to see everyone. We really appreciate the effort it took to come up and visit with us!

Sunday

I finished decorating our Christmas Tree. Time for another great Holiday.



Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!
