Turkey Day

What a fabulous Thanksgiving Day we had today. So much to be thankful for! We watched the Macy’s parade, as always, this morning while we cooked. Lu was up most of the night, so she actually took a wonderful nap before our feast.Our table was more empty than usual this year. The Heaths had company in town, Nana was sick, and Brie is coming for Christmas instead.We still had a lovely dinner. The kids played afterwards, we watched an incredible Cowboys win, and played cards as a family. Nate and Alex enjoyed playing chess with Grandpa too.  Grandpa won again. 😉Brie had her feast at Uncle Eric’s and Aunt Niki’s. She helped with a lot of the baking too. (Rolls are one of her favorites!)After the fun died down, it was time for dessert. Natalie made her traditional apple pie, Wii made chocolate lava brownies, Nate made pumpkin chiffon pie, and Alex made turkey cupcakes. Yum!When it was time to head home, the boys found that Grandma’s pumpkins were covered in huge snails. They didn’t want to leave after that!Eventually, we had to pry them away, and assure them that the snails would all be safe until they came back next time. 😜 What. Great day!
