Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving began with a few weeks ago when the kids were tasked with disguising their turkeys.

Ella disguised hers as Rapunzel:





Aidan disguised his as Captain America:





This past week they enjoyed a feast at school on Tuesday.  Ella and Aidan decorated their own turkeys with what they were thankful for this year.

Ella was thankful for her mommy and daddy, her sister & brother, her toys, and spaghetti.


Aidan was thankful for his toys, his sisters, the outside, and mac-n-cheese and cream cheese sandwiches.



Inside the bags were the cutest little turkey candles:







We decided to do something completely different this year since we had no one coming in to stay from out of town - we went to a brunch at a local restaurant with Grandmommy and Grandaddy.

We got all dressed up and posed for a few pictures:

















After lunch we hung out a bit with Grandaddy and Grandmommy, and then spent the rest of the day completing the switch of moving the playroom into the dining room (pictures to follow soon).






We did pause for a walk around the neighborhood:



 







It was a wonderful day spent together as a family - definitely time to be grateful for all of our blessings!
