Turkey Day Happenings

Love Turkey Day! It's just fun to get together with family, eat and enjoy company! My feeble attempt to get a family picture turned into a photo session with the kids . . . so here's Tia!She's so photogenic it's just not fair! My kids could take a lesson or two from her. Believe it or not this was the best of the three shots I took ~ I think the parade was more exciting than looking at the camera.

Next we have Lolly and POP!
Yes, Little Pumpkin has something in her mouth. I believe this is the only way to get her still for longer than 3 seconds.

So now for our family . . . first getting the sillies out:
... in hopes of getting a good family shot.

A little blurry, but at least we are all looking at the camera! *wink* This should get easier as they get older . . . right!?!?

After the family pics, it was time for lunch. We had WAY more food than 5 adults and 2 kids should have in a week! There was no room for dessert so we headed out for our Thanksgiving movie. We started this a few years back ~ going to the movies on Thanksgiving day ~ it's actually been really fun. The theater is empty and I'm not worried about the kids disturbing anyone (besides us).

We saw Bolt in 3-D! Don't you love the glasses. It was quite cute, but the shades gave me a bit of headache. Little Lion informed us on the way home, that it was "scary," however he was glued to the screen the entire time.

Little Pumpkin, well she did alright. After a few laps up and down the row she fell asleep on Tia (the last 20 minutes!). So she was DONE by the time we got home . . . nap time!

  1. I love the idea of watching a movie on Thanksgiving! How fun! We saw Bolt (not 3D) yesterday and loved it, too! Randall had a little bit of a hard time understand what was on the show on the movie and what was part of the movie. But, it was clean and fun!

    I think the family picture looks great! :-)
