Happy Turkey Day

Happy Thanksgiving to all friends and family!  We spent this bountiful holiday at my sister's house along with my parents, and my brother-in-law's family.  We shared many laughs together as well as way too much food!  The turkey was delicious, however Emily still had to have her ketchup up and Gracie had her honey.  At least they ate their dinner!  
I am thankful for many things in my life.  Of course family, friends and my health are always at the top of the list.  Although I do have a few unconventional things I am thankful for.  Those are...
*Gracie wearing "panties" through the night
*Emily taking wonderful naps
*Our new mattress (just purchased today, and yikes are those expensive!!)
*The new drink my mom introduced to me... sparkling water, raspberry syrup and some half and half (can I just say yum?)
*A working heater
*Nice sized playroom
Those are just to name a few!  Now that turkey day is done... it's time to get into that holiday spirit!  Christmas Carols, here we come! 

Lovely centerpiece thanks to my mom and girls

 The girls and I have been on a crafting kick lately, not sure really where this is coming from! 

Little Indians that Gracie created (with a little of mom's help of course!)

Getting ready for feast time!

 This seriously entertained my girls for like 20 minutes!  They also took many napkin rings and were stacking them.  Whatever makes them happy!

Until next year....
