Bye Bye Pumkin Pie


Thanksgiving party at the Center!!!

Making crust for our pies!!

Yum

Tons of games

And crafts. Bella adding her Thankful hand to the tree.

Jarom was so all over this. He has always wanted to do a eating contest. Poor kid didn't get my gut and couldn't stomach it after a few bites. He said it was gross. He really didn't have a chance.

Think she does? (who IS that guy?)

No. She did finish though.

Our favorite part. We always seem to find a way to dance to the beat. Can you see my two favorite dancers of all time? The daddy was on the drum.

Here's big brother.

Being one and giving back


Thanksgiving! I of course had to work all week long. Served (more like, cleaned up after) 700 people at the Marriott. But made it in time to Great Nana's to have a little family time. So glad I didn't miss Bella hauling around Ivy.

Or these happy guys!

Scrabble with the ladies

Cousins

The Champ table

Proud to say the handsome one on the right won.

Mary Beth, Cinny and Hostess Nana!!

Couldn't be more happier to finally meet Wolf (Sam), and to hang with my beautiful sister Jessica!

Happy Family, my lucky brother. So glad he was in town for the day.

Princess Gnome, priceless

Bella and Lily

Big Blessings.

I saw little Sam for a few minutes at grandmas last month - he is adorable! Ivy is as cute as a button! I'mglad you got to have a family member (at least a sibling) near by to share in the festivities! Hopefully your work gives you more time for Christmas!
