Thursday, November 26, 2010 Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
HIGH: IT'S THANKSGIVING!!!
LOW:  I wish we could spend the whole holiday with BOTH families :(

This year for Thanksgiving we decided to deep fry a turkey!  It was cute all the boys went outside and fried the turkey. 

Greg was the ring leader of this whole operation.  Therefore he got to wear the Turkey hat :)
Justin and Greg with the final product.  And I will say that the turkey was AMAZING!!
Then of course the Turkey hat got passed down to this little turkey.
 Then of course to this little turkey.
Turkeys.
The kitchen was buzzin' while we got the food ready.
Auntie Rose stirring the gravy. Mmmm.
Lauren and Sue gettin the salad ready.
Claire sat with Justin and explained her favorite movie to him.
Mark and Nonny talked teaching.
Finally, it was time to eat.  Here is the kids table!
And Claire sat at the big table :)
Oliver and Papa had some serious discussions before dinner.
Oliver had a lot to say.
Too cute.
After dinner Mark and Uncle Dave talked phones and Turkey Trot.
And Claire headed to her office to get some work done.
Then it was off to Aunt Irene and Uncle Brian's for dessert.  Claire and Owen had a blast playing the piano.
Uncle Brian showed them how to play a few songs. 
Oliver smoochin' Auntie Erin.
It's so nice to see everyone on Thanksgiving!

This year I have so much to be thankful for.  I know I say that every year!!  This year I am thankful for my babies.  Claire and Oliver are so amazing and everyday they bring me a joy that nothing else in this world can bring!  I am thankful for an amazing husband (who is working his fanny off on our new dining room).  I am thankful for the health of everyone in my family and all of my friends.  I could go on and on but the bottom line is this year I am thankful for my family and friends!  Without you guys I have nothing!
