Thanksgiving

It is too late to post about this? :-)

We had the privilege of being visited by Grandpa and Grandma and Sarah at Thanksgiving. We kind of crammed 3 holidays in one—Sarah’s birthday, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

Happy birthday, Sarah!

Walk with friends and family.

Could you carry any more kids, Tommy?

Asher got a big boy mattress and box spring after Thanksgiving. Technically, he got the hand me down, and Ainsley got the new mattress set, but it’s new to him!

Trip to the playground

 

The spread: turkey, sweet potato casserole, corn bread dressing, green beans, asparagus, mashed potatoes, cucumber salad, pickles and olives (more as a before dinner snack), and rolls. (Beautiful china from Auntie Em!)

I accidentally bought a much larger turkey than I meant to—I got it on on sale, and I thought the sign said the biggest bird was 12 lbs. I got the biggest one I saw, and when I got it to the register it was 23 lbs! Oops! I froze a lot of the meat and used it later.

Mom and dad got us a great floor lamp. Thanks!

Star Wars set for Ainsley from Grandma and Grandpa. You color it and create scenes with stickers you can color.

 

Little sewing kit from Aunt Sarah. It makes two little pillows.

 

This is one of them.
