Thanksgiving Day Weekend

Sorry, it has taken me so long to get this to post ~ I had a problem getting my photo's to download. Forgive the extra turkey picture - I'm not sure how delete the extra photo.


The boys and I started our vacation days by making our traditional turkeys. Since we were going to spend Thanksgiving at my folks - I didn't have much prep to do at our house. : ) This year, we brought Rick's step-mom along so she wouldn't be alone for the day. She ended up getting sick and went to the ER for the entire day. YUK!


Friday, we took the kids shopping and then to get our tree. Megan begged to stay home. PARTY POOPER!!! Although, we still made her go. We go to a small tree farm across from the Children's Farm. Cheap prices, friendly people, and a short drive. We found our tree rather quickly and we were on our way. Rick & the boys worked on outside lights and we all worked on the inside (well, except Meg).

What fun to go any find your own tree. Great photos.

What a pretty tree. We are gone for so long at Christmas that we have an ugly old stinky tree! That way it doesn't die while we are gone. Oh well less mess I suppose.Can't wait to see you all.

Oh and we made those turkey cookies at school. They did not look anywhere as neat as yours!!! They kept falling apart!

Those turkey cookies are the cutest thing! I love how adorable they look...and taste, too, I'm sure! The tree looks amazing - they did a great job.
