Happy Thanksgiving!!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone and hope you had a great day! The boys and I hung out in our jammies until about 10 this morning. I made a pot of coffee to get going and got us all ready for the day. At 1 we woke Dan up so that he could make it to the family gathering before he had to go to work.

We went to Dan's parents' house and had a great meal with family. Caleb got to sing "We Are Thankful" before grandpa did the formal blessing. Caleb had been talking about Thansgiving and turkey all week. He managed to eat 3 helpings of turkey, drank lots of punch, had tons of whip cream with the pie he didn't touch (he had to have more whip cream added 4 times) and left grandma's house eating marshmallows and choclate covered raisins. The kids had tons of fun playing and none had naps. Caleb fell asleep on the way across town tonight. I managed to get him in the house, get his jammies on and put him to bed without waking him. This has never happened before and since it was only 7pm I am concerned he will wake up very early in the morning. I guess we will see.

As you can see, Elton had fun and is thinking he needs to learn stairs now. Anissa, Carla and I managed to slip out of the house and leave the kids with grandpa and Chris while we went for a 2 mile walk on the canyon, which was very refreshing and much needed after all of the food we had consumed!
