Thanksgiving Leftovers

I was looking at my pictures and realized that I skipped over Thanksgiving in my Blog. Ooops!

So here is our exciting Thanksgiving activities we had this year.
Both the kids had programs at school. Emma did a great play where she had a couple of lines to memorize and was dressed up as a Pilgrim. They sang great songs and had a fun time. I snapped a picture of her with one of her classmates Tomas. I think he is a cutie!! Matthew had a Thanksgiving "Feast" (AKA:Potluck) that had all the Thanksgiving fixings. We had Turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and anything else you can think of. They opened with a Turkey song that Matthew continued to sing for weeks and weeks after. Below is a picture of him with his Turkey hat and the Thanksgiving placemat he made for us. I was so blessed that the activities for both kids were on the same day. So I just took the day off to spend with them and Ben. It was a great day!

Actual Thanksgiving Day we spent in Peachtree City with Ben's grandparents. Grandma and Grandpa Johanson were moving to Utah so this would be our last big get together before they moved. I invited my parents and we all had a lovely time. Unfortunately I was still having trouble with baby sickness but I tried to eat everything I could because it looked so good! We are going to miss our trips to Peachtree City so much.

I am Thankful for having such a wonderful family! And it looks like Matthew is too. When his teachers asked him what he was thankful for he stated the following: "My Daddy, My Mommy, and My Emma"!

I also had to add this picture of the Reindeer we went to see! It was pretty cool to see REAL Reindeer. They had it at the Learning Express near our home. The line to see Santa was around the corner so we just took a second to take these pics. Happy Holidays!!
