Turkey Day

We spent Turkey day this year with my family!!! There was lots of food, fun, and family. The day was so nice...the kids spent most of the day outside playing. They jumped on the tramp, collected leaves, and ran and played with all the cousins. Then we ate the yummy food that my mom always makes so perfectly. And of course...my picky eaters wouldn't hardly even eat anything. They don't know what they are missing. Maybe one day we will have a break through.
After turkey...we decorated gingerbread houses. It is our tradition every year to decorate them on Thanksgiving. This year they all got to decorate their own miniature version. I think the younger ones at more candy then ended up on their houses. Even Karli got into it. Of course, she was one of the ones doing more eating than decorating.







At the end of the day all the grand kids got a new pair of PJs from grama to sleep in for the month of December and a puppet from great grama and pa. And the finished off the night by watching Santa Buddies. We all had a great time....ate too much.....and at least for me started to think about how close Christmas was.

How fun. My family always decorates them for my nieces party (usually the day after Thanksgiving). The kids totally love it!
