Our fancy table setting for Thanksgiving Day! The kids made the "nut" cups and so some ended up with three eyes and some with no eyes, or some with tons of feathers then a few with just one sad little feather!

The kiddos and C wearing his pilgrim hat he made in school

This is the best Thanksgiving meal we have ever done on our own! SOOOOO yummy and pretty and perfect!

These are out of order, this was supposed to go before the thanksgiving pics...Dalton woke up early on our anniversary and was trying to make pancakes for us. Brad went in there to see what he was doing and he had like flour, an egg, and water or something in the bowl...but let's just say nothing close to the right amounts! So brad made it work and sent him back to our room while he made it. It was really cute and he was determined to do it by himself!

This is dad after we filled our tummy's with all that yummy food for Thanksgiving! He napped, Brad was doing something on computer and the kids were all the couch reading with grandma. It was a wonderful Day and we are so THANKFUL that my mom and dad came down to see us....after plans changed for us going up to see them. I was soooooo homesick and they drove down so we could still see them. None of our cars were working...at least the ones that fit us all, so we debated driving two cars up, but then the cars that needed help needed money to fix them, which ate up our gas money for the trip and then everything started going wrong etc, etc, etc. Dad saved the day by saying they would come down and just have thanksgiving here. It was wonderful and so fun! The next day of their visit we took them rapelling at the sand dunes close to our house and my dad actually went!!!! It was so fun and a beautiful, warm, sunny day and just a great visit and again, so surprised that dad went....he even went a few times! Even with his "look of horror"! It was great!

Sounds like you had a nice Thanksgiving feast, it was a beautiful spread as well! Glad your folks came to be with you since you couldn't make it to them...
