Thanksgiving was a glorious event- just having a break from school schedules was awesome. But, we worked hard for our play time and I think it made the days seem longer. Every morning we would get up and clean out closets, toy rooms, shelves, floors until every one was ready to cry (mostly me) and then we played the rest of the day. By night, it felt like three days had gone by!
On Wednesday, we took a (short) trip to Spanish Fork for a Smith Thanksgiving- shoot the turkey, play games, make pies, eat turkey sandwiches and pie for dinner. Yep, it was great.

| This is Josie. I don't think I've ever taken a picture of her, so it was about time- for posterity's sake. |

Uh, that's Lexi. She was hungry.
On Thursday, the actual big day, we cleaned some more, I made cranberries and Zach made three different kinds of mash potatoes, including a dairy free version for me. I was oh, so glad about that! They were delicious. At 4 we went over to the Largey grandparents for the fancy, eat on china/drink from goblets, kind of dinner. We played a good round of Apples to Apples and then headed home for bed. Whew! Being dairy free ensures I don't over stuff myself which will be good for these holiday times... well good FOR me, at least. |
