Thanksgiving!!!

Thanksgiving this year was at our house with some of the families from Ski's shop in Avionics and our neighbor Preston. We fried a turkey - which has been a learning process over the last few times we have done it. Lets just say we are still learning. It was a little bit crisp - but still very good.

We had soooooo much food and it was AWESOME!!!


I was lucky to have my sister Megan here for the holiday too. She came in for a week and we had a lot of fun with her.

Rachel, Hunter and Jacqui!

The kids played outside all day - Matt has no toys because all he ever does is play outside!!!!


Here I am - 22 weeks pregnant!

This is nothing but trouble right here! It's this face that will get her way with Ski every single time!!!!

Thanksgiving week!

Hope everyone had a great thanksgiving! We definitely did! My best friend Theresa came down for a visit with her two kids Jake and Trista - that means we had 5 kids in the house. The last time all the kids were together was two years ago when Theresa and her family came for Thanksgiving.

The girls had a lot of fun playing together - a few fights here and there over toys but overall they did really good!

Theresa and I took the kids to the movies to see "Fred Claus." Cadence stayed home with her dad because she won't sit still through a movie just yet.

The big hit for all the kids this trip was all the lizards that are around here. All day long all they did was hunt for them and put them in the cooler as their pets. Jake even talked his mom into letting him take one home in her cooler. Even Cadence held them!
Not sure how this happened but we even found one in our house!!!!
Thanksgiving was great. Between me and our neighbor Ken, we cooked an awesome meal and had some people from Ski and Ambers shop over for dinner. One of the guys in Ambers shop is from Michigan. We got to talking and come to find out, he used to hang around with my stepbrother Jason and pretty much grew up at my dads house before he joined the Marine Corps. What a small world!!!





Theresa and I decided to do our Christmas with the kids while she was here. So after shopping all day long the day after Thanksgiving, we let them open presents.
I got Trista and Cadence these pajama's - aren't they cute

As always it was a great time and it was sad to see Theresa and the kids go. They all had a lot of fun together!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving

We had an awesome Thanksgiving. We went to our neighbors - Rob and Denise - and Ski's friend Dave and his wife Heather came over. Dave has a fryer so we fried the Turkey and it was SO good! There was tons of food - no one went away hungry! Jacqui was a huge help and made the deviled eggs - she did a really good job. Everyone thought they were great! Here are some pictures from our day!

Dave lowering the Turkey - don't they look so cute - they called each other ahead of time to coordinate their outfits!!! (Kidding Dave!)


I hope we have renters insurance!!!


Inside Denise's getting the rest of the food ready!
