One turkey day down...one to go!

We spent the day Saturday at my Dad's house for my family's Thanksgiving - it's not that often these days that we are all together in one place! We had the usual Thanksgiving dinner and wished my sister a Happy 40th Birthday...her birthday is the day before Thanksgiving this year, poor thing hardly ever has a separate celebration. Seems like it's just at Thanksgiving and Christmas that we're all together - which is great that we can spend time together then, it's just so hard for everyone to get together more often through the year. Thank God my parents get along as well as they do being divorced, that means so much to us and makes holidays so much more special and much easier!

Sunday was non-stop at our house with visitors, Amanda in the morning and then The Kratt's came over in the afternoon for dinner - along with Liz and Mary for a QUICK "photo session" of Madelyn in hopes of getting a decent picture for our Christmas card! Liz got some good shots, Madelyn certainly is NOT one to pose...so we really have to act quick with her and hope she cooperates somewhat, like any toddler.

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day -- it'll be quiet around here. We're heading to Amelia later in the afternoon to have Thanksgiving dinner with Ben's family. It'll be a fun visit. Off to bed for now...been a crazy week here - that'll have to be another post :)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
