Thanksgiving

This morning we all go to sleep in!! So nice. The fog over the lake was almost a picture out of a movie. It was breathtaking. We all enjoyed breakfast and the kids played while we all watched the parade. This has been a tradition every year. We headed over around noon and the house already smelled delish! We all went out for our normal football warm up. We threw the ball around and get stretched out! Then we had our traditional family football blitz! It is starting to get interesting because the kids all seem to want to play! We got called in and we washed up!! Time for the feast! We ate till our pants had to be unbuttoned.

Every year at the end of dinner we let the food settle and we go around the table and tell each other what we are thankful for. One thing. One thing? Are you kidding me? I have way more then 1 thing to be thankful for. My family, my friends, my faith, my and my family's health, our freedom, I could go on and on. This year I think I went with "faith". We have just been through a lot this year and with out our faith, I don't know how we could have gotten through it. I have been truly blessed with an amazing support system this year and I can't thank all of you enough!

The rest of the afternoon involved my child somehow breaking out of the pack-n-play during "nap time" and ending up breaking out of the house. Only my child! Seriously! Michael, Dave and I took the 3 boys on a nice long walk and then went down by the lake to throw rocks in. Kids always seem to enjoy that activity! We went back to Grandma's for dinner and now we are getting ready to start a made game of Spades with watching "The Grinch" with Jim Carey! Yet another tradition! Hope everyone had a fantastic holiday! Tomorrow is the shopping extravaganza! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!
