Thanksgiving 2012

Thanksgiving was a bit of a whirlwind because the weekend before was our NY trip and Grams and Granddad were here watching the boys. 

The Thursday before Thanksgiving, Luke had a "Thanksgiving Feast" at school that Ross and I went to.  They sang a few songs and then served us lunch.  It was so sweet and big of him.

Not much into singing, but a good smiler.  And he wanted to pray for our lunch.

 Nana and Gigi came in on Tuesday to relieve them so they could head onto Austin and we flew back into Dallas Tuesday evening.  We were so glad to get home to our boys, but I a lot of Thanksgiving prep work to do.  Thankfully (in the most literal sense), Gigi loves to cook and is an amazing cook, so she took over kitchen duty for the most part while Nana and I entertained the boys and I helped when I could.  We had a wonderful meal and Luke and Reid had a lot of fun watching the parade Thursday morning, and then setting up their Thanksgiving kids table.  Pinterest saved the day with lots of fun activities to keep them busy like color by numbers and sorting m&m's into turkey pictures.

The kids table.  They made their hats at school.

Reid's feast was crescent rolls, applesauce and yogurt.
 Maybe one day he'll enjoy turkey, but not this year.

He's lack of clothing works well with his headdress.
