Thanksgiving

Well, I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was great! We had a busy, but very thankful day. We started out at Bubba'a Great Aunt Carmella and UncleJoe's house to visit. They are so sweet. I love how on all the holidays everyone goes over there to pay a visit. It really reminds me how things should be now a days. Then we made our way over to Aunt Betty and Uncle Jerry's house. We had a great time. Lots of food! It looked like we didn't even eat anything when we were cleaning up the table. The babies are so cute! I could just eat them up. They are both walking and talking a little bit. I love how they are learning to sign some words. It is soooooooo cute! I wish I would have done that with my kids. But I'll admit it, I was too lazy to take the time to do that. I guess we made it without it. Maybe I will do it with this next one. After Aunt B's we went to Natalie and Sean's. It was very small and intimate. Only us, them, my parents. Once again it looked like we didn't even eat a thing. Kind of depressing since there are some people that don't even have a thing to eat. We are very lucky and very blessed. It was a hard Thanksgiving, since this was the first one without Boo-Boo. I know my mom was really having a hard time. But I think he was there with us in spirit. We sure do miss him hollering at the kids! haha He was really good at that. :)

On a different note. I went to Carlie's Thanksgiving feast at school on Monday and all the kids were asked what are they thankful for. So it went around the room and each child would reply, "I am thankful for my family and friends." So I am waiting for Carlie's turn, I am sure she is going to say that she is thankful for her family or her mom being with her today. Then when it gets to her I have this Big smile on my face, just knowing what she is going to say, then she says,"I am thankful for my. . .DOG!" I thought what am I chopped liver! It was funny!
