Thanksgiving

We had thanksgiving at our house this year. It was our first one where we were in charge. Everything turned out pretty good. The only thing that went wrong was we set the marshmallows on fire on the yams. My dad blew them out and we took the top layer off and they still tasted good :) it was pretty funny I wish I had got a picture of it. Joel made the turkey and it was delicious!


Here is Joel preparing the bird.

Joel loving some Mt Dew. We were able to use my goblets that my mom gave me that were my Great Grandmas.

Orin. He loved the turkey and the roll. He also loved having visitors. He was very sad when everyone left.


Orin wearing Dad's jacket after the cousins left. He thought he was so cool in Dad's jacket.


Orin and Grandpa. Grandpa puts Orin on his shoulders and Orin loves it. He likes to mess up Grandpa's hair and play with his ears and nose. We ask Orin wear is his nose and he grabs it and then he grabs Grandpa's nose. It was so funny,
 

Orin was so excited and had so much fun that he didn't get a nap. He fell asleep watching the first 10 minutes of Brave. He then woke up when we were putting his pj's on and had so much energy you never would have guessed he didn't get a nap. He has the power nap down pretty good. He slept for those ten minutes and then was running around for an hour and a half later. I am so grateful for my family. I am especially grateful for Joel and Orin and the baby.

  1. Looks like it was an awesome day! It is always great to spend Thanksgiving with family! Funny about the marshmallows on fire! I loved catching up on your other posts as well. Your Halloween costumes were very clever, and the bed and dresser look amazing!
