Give Thanks!

We are so happy to finally have family living by us, and by that I mean a 6 hour drive, but believe me, that feels close to us! This year for Thanksgiving, we got to join my parents and little brother Mark at my brother Matt's house for Thanksgiving. We had an awesome time! The kids all had a blast together, the guys enjoyed the Lord of the Rings trilogy (almost nightly) and the girls got to shop! And all that was in addition to the amazing feast we had!



Grandma, of course, came bearing gifts:







Grandma also had a fun, edible craft for the girls to make, turkey cookies!





I don't know if the girls had more fun making or eating them!



Aunt Lisa helped the girls make super cute/fun paper bag "indian" vests!





Blake in his Thanksgiving garb...never mind the huge wet spot, he was having so much fun, he must have forgot to tell me to change his diaper!



Lisa did an AWESOME job on the turkey!!! Matt, carving the "roast beast"



The three Turkey Princesses enjoying their meal!



Thanks Matt and Lisa for being amazing hosts!
