I hope everyone had a pleasant and yummy Thanksgiving.
I'm glad to report we had a pleasant and yummy Thanksgiving as well.
We enjoyed the day with the Merritts (Aunt Naomi, Uncle Gary, Jane, & Ian), Lora Beth, Anna, and her friend Justin. We had a yummy spread of comfort Thanksgiving dishes: turkey, ham, yummy mash potatoes, candied sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts (great with soy sauce and a tad of vinegar!), corn, hot rolls, salad, stuffing, and the MOST important dish to any Thanksgiving dinner--the gravy! The meal was so delicious. I wish I would've eaten more than I did. Just remembering the meal makes me want to go back in time and eat it again. Oh! I can't forget dessert: Pumpkin pie, chocolate swirl cheese cake, an "interesting" apple pie (made by yours truly), and pumpkin cheese cake.
Thanksgiving together as a family.I am grateful to have such a wonderful family extended and immediate.
Isaac enjoyed his Thanksgiving! His tummy was bulging when he was finally done.
Eat up Benjamin!I am very grateful for two wonderful boys who remind me each day how very blessed I am.
Justin brought his Wii and Guitar Hero 3 over. Everyone had fun taking turns pretending to be famous guitar artists.
Go Tom! Strum that guitar!How thankful I am for Tom and his love of music and most importantly for the immense love he has for his family.
Isaac even took a turn 'playing' the game.Mmmmm... mash potatoes and gravy sounds good right now.
Uncle Gary and Aunt Naomi were kind enough to watch Benjamin and Isaac while Tom, Anna, Justin, Jane, Ian, Lora Beth, and I went to catch a Thanksgiving flick. We wanted to see Enchanted, but of course it was sold out. So instead we saw Bee Movie. It was cute and funny most of the time. Nothing much to say about that movie. :)
Here are some more pictures that made the day even more enjoyable.
Benjamin had fun playing with his aunties Anna and Jane.He also had a blast playing with Ian.
Row Row Row your boat gently down the stream!
What long legs you have Benjamin!

Here's Anna turning an one eyebrow man into a two eyebrow man!(Sorry Ian, I had to put this in.)
Even though there are no pictures of the older generation for their proof of enjoying the holiday, I am sure they had as much fun as we had.
