Giving Thanks

We spent this Thanksgiving at my parents' house and had a really great time. As we tend to be big "gamers," we played a little Scrabble the night before. Spencer and I were on the same team so we could take turns with Sydney, but it pretty much ended up that I played the first game (and won), then he played the second game (and won). Just had to put that on the record since it doesn't happen often :)

This little turkey does not like to sleep in her pack 'n play, so in order to help Spencer at least get some rest, I slept in my Dad's super comfy rocking chair with her in my lap. It actually worked really well- she only woke up once!

I sure am thankful for these two.

While Thanksgiving dinner was cooking, the girls danced as Grandpa rocked out on the guitar.

Had to laugh at little Riley, who thoroughly enjoyed bossing around Elayna and James. She dressed them as a bride and groom, then had them come downstairs and parade around the family room for everyone to see.

Since I know the kids enjoy crafts, I brought stuff to make these cute little pilgrim hats. Thank you, Taste of Home magazine, for the idea!

The whole gang watching Home Alone. Somehow I never think to take pictures of my whole family until just before we're getting ready to leave, so I guess the back of everyone's heads will have to do this year.

Happy Thanksgiving!
