Thanksgiving

This year Thanksgiving was a little bit different. We stayed home and I cooked my FIRST Thanksgiving dinner. We had my mom, dad, Kenz and Zach over. It was so fun cooking the dinner. I bought and cooked my first turkey. My sweet husband said it was the BEST turkey he had ever tasted.....somehow I don't really believe him. I made the rolls, stuffing, green bean casserole and pie all by myself. All was a success! Afterward, my dear cousin came to have a sleepover so the real festivities could begin. Amie always stays Thanksgiving night and we stay up late talking and laughing. I love her! We then woke up extra early this year. Kassie was having stress over getting all of the great deals at Wal Mart so we began or shopping at 4 am this year! We got to Wal Mart and got lots of great deals! We shopped and shopped and shopped until 6 pm Friday. This has been a tradition of our family for years. We all have so much fun.....but boy are people crazy (not just us!)

I am so excited for Christmas this year. We have so much to be Thankful for. We are excited to watch out little family grow. The boys are so excited and it is fun having a new little addition to our family. Addyson brings so much joy to us.



Let the Christmas Season begin.....
