We started out this week of Thanksgiving with a lot to be THANKFUL for . . .
First: good insurance and doctors that tried really hard to get to the bottom of Christian's hives episode. Thankfully, he is not proving to be allergic to anything in particular, but may have a bit of asthma.
We finally got to go see "Wicked" and it was awesome! I am thankful that we have a wonderful theater, was able to get great seats at a good price, and had the afternoon off to go see the show! We loved it and during intermission, Brooke asked if we could see it again.
Thanksgiving Day!!
The beautiful, sunny day started off with the annual Turkey Bowl football game at the park. A lot of people showed up to play, and it turned out to be great fun.
Our family fun day started at 10:00 a.m. with the arrival of cousin Angie. She is so much fun and we all love her. We went to the movie at 11:00 to see "Bolt" and met Andrea and Adam there. That is such a cute movie.
We came back to our house to finish up the Thanksgiving Feast which was fab-u-lous!
You can't have olives without doing olive fingers!
Ahhhh . . . the pies: chocolate, traditional pumpkin, apple cranberry, and gingersnap carmel pecan pumpkin cheesecake. Yum-0!
The chocolate was the first to be devoured.
The newlyweds! Brandon and Renee! (so cute!!)
Cousin fun: I love how they all get together and goof off. I think Domonique was under the pile for the better portion of the night.
Brooke teaching Angie "lemonade, crunchy ice"
The after-feast-and-dessert activity: gingerbread houses!!!!!
We had a lovely Thanksgiving! I am thankful to be surrounded by wonderful family.
Friday we brought down all the Christmas decorations from the attic . . . oh the fun begins.
Thankfully we finished up pretty much all the decorating (except for the tree) and the house was cleaned up in time to feed the missionaries. Nothing like having a deadline to get things done.

That photo of your little being tested is so sad! I am glad that he is doing better. So strange about his hives!
Looks like you had a great Thanksgiving! Those pies looked fabulous! I am going to make one for tomorrow so that I can have pie for breakfast!
I had to laugh at your last photo - I had to enlarge it to see who that little boy was - it was a doll! HA!
Cute family!
THANK YOU ALL FOR A WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING MEAL AND EVENING, and the girls entertainment at the piano. We did have a great time and enjoy so much visiting with your extended family. One of my favorites was watching Brooke and Angie...what fun!
