Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to all! We stayed home this year and I cooked for our little family. We had turkey (just did a turkey breast), green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, scalloped potatoes, corn, rolls, apple crisp and pumpkin pie!

Cameron tried a little of everything and liked most of it! Carolyn, our usual "good eater" is turning into an "I don't like that" before I try it kind of 3 year old! :) They just have very different motivations. Cameron is souly motivated by dessert! Carolyn likes a sweet here and there, but not enough to try cranberry sauce! But when either of them find something they like... they'll usually have 3 helpings of it - especially Car!

While I cooked dinner this morning (we ate at 1pm) Brett took the kids to a friend/church member's house out in the country where there was a friendly game of mud football going on. I heard it was very muddy! The kids even got some sugar cookies from our friends who live next farm over (Brett and the kids were out looking at the cows and needed to go "potty" - the kids, not Brett!).

Then later in the day, we took a drive in the country. It has been raining the last couple of days so it was pretty to see the fresh country. Now back home for left-overs and pajamas... and then bed! Cameron is excited that Thanksgiving is over because "next is Christmas". They are the right age to "get it" this year. I am just as excited!
