Our Thanksgiving Weekend-

We had such a nice Thanksgiving weekend. Thanksgiving Eve (is that such a thing) Maddex and I watched "Traveling Pants 2" with Grandma Kathy while the boys all went to the church and played basketball. We went to Tanners grandmas for Thanksgiving dinner- which was so great- it was so fun to be with all of the family! It was also really nice that my brother could come over for dinner. For the first time EVER, I played BUNCO- & thought it was soo fun. We then went back to Brad & Kathys house to play games and watch Christmas movies. It was a fun day- it is so nice to have such a great family when you are so far away from home.

One of the best things about Thanksgiving... sad to say- but Tanner and I about killed each other trying to get the paper out- It is a big thing- he couldnt open it without me... b/c I didnt want him to see the sales before me... when I opened it- it was like angels were singing... it was SO thick... We sat in the living room for like an hour just looking at flyers- and after all that... we only went to babies-r-us. lame.

When my toffee failed- (cussed toffee) I had to go in a new direction...

Grandma Hemmers amazing chocolate pudding pie

Maddex biting a frozen bagel- it is supposed to be good for teething babies... (and yes, he did get a little rash- no more bagels!)

At breakfast for Great-Grandpa Grants Birthday, the big 79! (please excuse Maddex in this picture- he was having a moment)

That's so funny - my daughters and I watched Traveling Pants (the first one) Thanksgiving night...I have never cried over a movie so much in my life. I am going to have to see #2...is it any good? How about for teenaged daughters?
I am so glad you had a good Thanksgiving. And the Babies-R-Us trip just shows that you have your priorities straight!
