Happy Thanksgiving!!


At our house we have a tradition of everyone making their own pie! We do this the night before Thanksgiving, so this is Landen and Porter working on their chocolate pudding pie! It was delicious! They did a great job.

Landen and Hattie enjoying the Macy's Day Parade while mom was trying to get things ready to go.

This is how we started out our Thanksgiving playing football!! Well Ty played football. Landen played for a couple plays but then decided he was going to go "turkey hunting" with Porter a few other friends! We all had a lot of fun!

Another of our favorite traditions is decorating turkeys while waiting for our real turkey to cook. The boys had a blast making their turkeys. Landen said his turkey was a museum turkey. That why there is a "rope" in front of his turkey. Porter thought it was great that his marshmallows would just stick to the turkey. This year our turkeys were made out of caramel corn instead of rice crispies. They were really yummy!!

Porter ready to enjoy his Thanksgiving dinner!
After we finished eating we headed to the movie theaters and say Madagascar 2. Then off to our friends house for pie!
Landen, Sydaleigh, and Porter enjoying their pie!
Hattie had a great Thanksgiving!! She ate, slept, ate, slept, ate, slept, then was adored by 5 little girls who all wanted a turn holding her. They were so cute with her and I think she really enjoyed the attention she was getting from them.
We really did have a great Thanksgiving we are are so thankful to be a family! We have a lot of fun together and really enjoy being together. We are also so grateful for great friends that make us feel so welcomed! 2008 Thanksgiving was a great success!

I wish you could have been here for Thanksgiving. We missed you. However it is great that you have a family and friends to share it with when your family is so far a way. I can't wait to see you this weekend. The kids looked like they had a blast. Hattie looked like she enjoyed it to. I love and miss all of you.
