Thanksgiving 2008

I love Thanksgiving!!! On every single level. I don't care if the stores are putting their Christmas up after Easter (well it feels that way) to me the Holidays do not start til Thanksgiving!!

And what is the best way to introduce the holidays!? A lovely cheese and cracker tray, pickle and olive tray and a veggie tray!! I forgot deviled eggs!! Came so to canceling but decided to press forward!

Another tradition!! Christmas movies. Every year I get close to wavering the few days before Thanksgiving! But the Christmas movies do not come out til Turkey Day!! Liam and Cameron watching 'Olive the Other Reindeer'!

Obviously we are over at the Buytas's! Thank you Mike for inviting us!! Thank You Naomi for unlocking the front door ;)

Jason and Charlie. Oh good lord he is going to end up one HUGE dog!

Um who in the frick falls asleep BEFORE eating turkey!?!?!

If only my blog had a scratch and sniff option!! This was one darn good turkey!!

It's time to eat!! It's time to eat!!!

Oh look proof I was there!

I have always wondered what those huge dog crates were for and now I have it figured out!!

Kids are in the crate so now we can play with the dog!! Of course the first phrase that comes to mind is 'Awe bless!'. Poor thing actually looks scared in this shot!!

Naomi tried to have a quiet tender moment with him but this boy was fired up and ready to play! 5 seconds later he was down and all over the place!!

Now this is were I would end my Thanksgiving blog on a sentimental note. But I won't. The next day Cameron amused us quite a bit with numerous drawings of him and Liam playing in that dog crate. What in the world happened in that crate the ignited my son's imagination!?! I guess only the boys will know ;)
Liam is in the crate under a blanket. My favorite part about this one!?! Cameron drew himself with a Mohawk!!!!


Cameron , still hawkin', and Liam in the cage but from a different perspective. We were so confused until Cameron said 'wash hands'. AHH!!! They're looking at the sink!!!

Oh look at this one! The house is much more decorated!! All of these pictures were drawn over the course of the day. Everytime he did a new one we would grab the camera! I think I could fill a whole album with pictures of his MagnaDoodle alone!!


Thanksgiving at the Buytas's was lovely! And stress free. Well for me I don't know about Mike he did most of the cooking ;) But ooooh my it was a good turkey!!
