Happy Thanksgiving!!! {2012}

We have had such a wonderful Thanksgiving! This morning, Payton and I started to make peanut butter balls. When we realized that we didn't have enough time to finish them before it was time to go to Grandma's house, I quickly devoted all my attention to finishing off some deviled eggs. The kiddos were all watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse in the living room, when I asked Evan what Karsyn was doing. He told me that she was eating Nutella with Addi on the couch! The Nutella was so good, that Baby Girl decided to forgo a spoon and was eating it by the fist full. I called out to Jason, who was resting for Black Friday - he's in the retail biz, don't you know? He gave the girls a quick bath and then we were off to Grandma's house. Here is our little family of 6 at Grandma and Papa F's house this Thanksgiving Day! (It's so pretty out where they live. Some day, I'd love to do family pictures at their house.)

Our little family of 6 - Thanksgiving 2012

Considering the size of our family, we had a small gathering this year. I love a big get together, but this was very nice too. Here are Papa F & Grandma.

It was our little family of 6, Papa F, Grandma, and Uncle Robert. Uncle Robert is Grandma's brother. Can you see the resemblance? I can!

After a few pictures, we headed inside to eat. Here are the place cards Payton made. It sure made the meal special. It was a lot of fun for her and Grandma to decide where everyone would sit.

We had a wonderful meal! Thanks to Grandma again - it was so delicious!!! I wish we could have stayed longer, but we did have to get Daddy home so that he could rest. Tonight, Payton and I are going to finish off the peanut butter balls. We are going to eat them and leftovers as we watch the movie 'Brave.' Jason's boss so sweetly bought a copy of it for the kiddos. Hope you all had a blessed Thanksgiving too!!!
