Thanksgiving Review
Instead of an all inclusive detailed retelling of our day/weekend, I decided to just post a few pictures and comments on our Thanksgiving this year.
This is the Thanksgiving pie we made. We covered the top with cut outs of things we were thankful for that I also had cookie cutters in the shape of. The letters symbolize each member of our family (Dad, Mom, Isaac, Charlotte, Nicole, and Ila). We are also thankful for cars to drive, Christmas, cats, football, delivery trucks, a house to live in, stars in the sky and all the people we love.
I bribed the kids on Thanksgiving morning to do chores for me in exchange for a special snack. The snack consisted of min-egg rolls, pizza rolls, and sparkling juice.
We had a nice Thanksgiving meal at Zach’s Aunt and Uncle’s house. While the rest of us enjoyed a nice traditional Thanksgiving dinner, Ila refused to even taste any of it and only ate a bowl of peanut butter with some water to drink. She wouldn’t even taste the pie and ice cream we had for dessert!
On Friday we bought our first real Christmas tree and then decorated it. It looks rather small on top of the van, but it almost touches the ceiling and fills out it’s space in our living room well.
