Thanksgiving 2014

Not that our lives aren't stressful enough, we decided to host Thanksgiving for both sides of our families only 2 weeks after moving in to our new house.  It was a little overwhelming but turned out really nice.  Everyone brought a dish and helped out.  The girls played outside with their cousins some during the day.  I thought the girls would make it to 6 PM to eat dinner but they were pretty cranky by that time so there was a lot of flying food and sippy cups.  I ate a cold meal, but that comes with being a Mom.  We are so thankful for our healthy little girls and we are so fortunate to have a wonderful family supporting us every step of the way.  Here is the one picture I took on Thanksgiving at the very end of the night.

My Three Lil Turkeys!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  I know I did.  I have so much to be thankful for this year... my three lil turkeys.  This year we went to my brother and sister-in-law's house for Thanksgiving dinner.  It is so nice that all of our families get along.  This allows us all to come together at one location and spend a longer time together... which is what the holidays are all about, right?  So, it was my family, my in-laws, and my sister-in-law's family all under one roof for some turkey and stuffing.  We arrived early with the girls so we could get situated (AKA turn my SIL's house in to a daycare in under 5 minutes flat) and feed the girls before we were going to eat.  There were plenty of baby holders (Aunts, cousins, Grandpa's, etc.) so I was able to walk around baby-free for a little while and give my arms a break.  It was so fun to see everyone together especially since it was the girls' first Thanksgiving.

 

On Saturday, we traveled to Brian's family farm about an hour and a half away.  It was the girls' first time going to the farm and they wore their blue jeans incase they had to be put to work ;)





 

Look who decided it was time to push up on all fours... I'm gonna have mobile babies very very soon.



And a family photo before we headed home.  It was a great weekend.
