Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving this year was another interesting event for our family. I am coming to terms with how "holidays" are changing for our family since we moved to Clemson. Last year, we spent Thanksgiving in Disney world...not too bad, but a juicy burger and fries replaced a turkey, stuffing and sweet potatoes. This year, Andy had 2 practices on Thanksgiving...whaaat??! So, we entered another "make-do-with-what-you've-got" holiday. We are fortunate enough to have some really great friends around us here at Clemson and we were able to collaborate with one of the families and have a fun Thanksgiving feast! Of course, nothing seemed to go right since Andy was gone for the day! All the dishes that I usually make for our family feast, turned out horrible...oh well! Three of Andy's GA's couldn't go home for TG, so we invited them to join us. It ended up being a great day (minus my dry biscuits, burnt bacon and undercooked green bean casserole...ugh!!!) at least my pumpkin pound cake was AWESOME;)

we started the day off right with the Macy's TG Day parade...the girls practicing to be the next Rockettes

not quite in sync, but with a little practices....um, nope!

Alley and Leah excited about spending TG together

time for some TG crafts/coloring...we had to occupy them somehow so we could have some adult convo over a cup of coffee;)

MC couldn't sit still...surprise, surprise...checking out baby Jesus and making sure he's being taken care of...

sweet, wild MC...oh my are you a hand full:)

We had a great time celebrating with friends this year! We had a few bumps in the road this year, but I am looking forward to how we get to celebrate next year!! Rumor has it, we get to go to St. Martins right before TG next year!! WOO-HOOO...I am ready for my Margarita!;)
