Thanksgiving Week

Happy Thanksgiving! :)

We had a great time with our family on Thanksgiving Day. We were warming ourselves up at Lala and Papa's (my mom and dad's home).
We allowed Rachel to bring one of her toys to play with and she chose her Little People School Bus! She had to bring all the Little People her little hands could gather, of course! :)
It's tradition to have Dad make the turkey, he also has the honor of trimming it before we eat! :) It was YUMMY!!! Uncle Ashley and Aunt Lilia joined us this year at mom & dad's house. They are so much fun to talk to and catch up with! :)
Here we are before prayer time and food. (Can't you tell we're hungry.)

After lunch we all scoped out the deals in the newspaper for "black Friday".

(Ben was the only one to brave the cold to go to Comp USA at 9pm that night to buy Photoshop 6 and a card for his camera. He said it was an experience that he had to try once at least in his lifetime! ;) He was gone for 3 1/2 hours just to get those few things! He made it back home alittle after midnight!)

After lunch, dessert, reading the paper, & nap (Rachel's), we decided to watch Rudolph. Rachel loves the movie, but is scared of the snow monster. :) She sits real close to daddy to protect her! ;) It's too cute! She and he were having a father-daughter moment! :)

Thank you Lord for blessing my family and I. We are honored to be YOUR children. You are amazing and each day I see your wonderful work in my life. I love YOU LORD!
