This is the first time that we did not travel for Thanksgiving to either Colorado or Utah! I was a little home sick for family but it was also nice to be able to relax and not travel! We spent the morning cooking and watching the Macy's Day parade. It does not feel like Thanksgiving to me if I don't have the parade on! I love it!
In the afternoon we went to the Hawkes' home for dinner! Jesse is a first year EM Resident with Chris and we love having them here in AR! They have 3 boys so we've decided we can play matchmaker down the road Hehehe! :) It's nice having friends who are also so far from family so we can keep each other company!
We made the rolls, green bean casserole, fluff, and pies! Chris made a pecan pie from scratch and I made a banana cream pie from scratch! We had fun making them both for the first time! I also made little oreo turkeys for the plates!
My sweet baby's first Thanksgiving!!!...
We had a BLAST eating and chatting! The girls had fun running around like crazies and they were playing outside in the cold! McKenna asked if she could wear Louis's robe. One of the only things she has asked for christmas is a robe. She thought it was the coolest thing in the world! Adyson borrowed a camo jacket and they were drinking hot cocoa with peppermint marshmallows to warm up!!!
After dinner Becky and I had to run to walmart to get one of the black friday deals and then we met back up with our fam's at the church where a bunch of people got together for pie! It was a lot of fun... although I have to admit... I was dying to go shop. I can't stand missing an awesome deal. Chris took the girls home and put them to bed and Becky and I went back out to the madness of shopping. Best. Time. EVER! I LOVE deal shopping.
So thankful the Lord has blessed me beyond belief.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!
