Thanksgiving

We had an amazing Thanksgiving. Due to the October snowstorm Mike still had work to get done so he had to work the morning of Thanksgiving. I used that time to enjoy the kids and plan out my black Friday shopping trip.

Thanksgiving morning the kids and I took a walk to the corner store to pick up a newspaper. It was a chilly morning but the kids didn't mind. Since being back at work we have not been able to go on family walks as much so this was a well anticipated event. ON our walk, we saw a few of our neighbors outside and was able to wish them a happy Thanksgiving. Sophia liked that.


Joey liked his new winter snowsuit. It is very warm but not to bulky.

After our relaxing morning, we went to Auntie Tera and Uncle Adam's house for dinner. It was an exciting day because both Joey and Matthew were celebrating their first Thanksgiving. Food was great and the company even better!

We had bought Joey his own special Thanksgiving day shirt for the day and he wore the same hat Sophia did for her first Thanksgiving. Sophia was a much better sport.

We did manage to capture one smile from our little turkey!
My beautiful babies!
After dinner we tried to get a picture of all the kids. Luckily Joey was asleep so we only had to try to get one to sit up and all three to look at the camera. They may not have been looking in my direction but they are all sitting and smiling so I call it a success.
After our photo shoot we headed home for a quick nap before shopping. Thanks to my human alarm clock I was up to feed him at 2:00am and then headed out shopping. Around 4:00am I came back and got Sophia. She joined me for her first Black Friday shopping event. We met with Auntie Adrienne and Auntie Tera for breakfast then headed home. It was such a fun day!
