Thanksgiving

A




What a wonderful fall day!  We all stayed home and spent the day cooking, playing the wii and bonding with each other.   Part of me would have enjoyed going to spend the day with our extended family but the other part (the part that was in my jammies all day)  was content to be at home.  Plus, tomorrow will be a big day with climbing around the mountain looking for the perfect tree.  

Alyssa dressed up as an Indian Princess for her Thanksgiving party at school.  It was really cute.  Each child had to bring a lunch for a friend and write a card saying what they were thankful for about this friend.  Each child got up in front of the class, held a microphone and 'read' their letter to their friend.  They were very excited about this.

I didn't get any pictures of her at the party because my old camera took a turn for the worse.  So off to Best Buy we went last night.  Thanks to Jen, I bought my first SLR camera and LOVE IT!

In between taking care of the baby, cooking and watching the family play the Wii, I watched a few tutorials on the camera and i can't wait to use it in the mountains tomorrow.  Hopefully I will get pics for the Christmas cards and newsletter.
