Thanksgiving, my favorite pre-season activity..

It's no secret that Thanksgiving to me is really just the official start of the real holidays.  I always cheat a bit and put up most of the Christmas decorations prior to the big meal because I love to spend the majority of the long weekend basking in the beauty which is my holiday decor.  Also, Thanksgiving should really be a few weeks earlier.  By the time it rolls around I no longer feel "harvesty", and am ready to move on to winter.  Despite all that, we had a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving!

It started out with small Thanksgiving programs put on by each of my girls' classrooms.

 

 

We also spent alot of time outside, enjoying the snow.  Ty could barely walk with his big boots on in the snow, but he really loved when we went sledding.

Thanksgiving day was so much fun.  We had dinner at my in-laws.  There were crafts for the kids, great conversation, and delicious food.  It really was perfect until Ty THREW UP all over my mother in law!  And I mean projectile, it was awful.  Don't worry though.  Their dog was quick to clean up the mess.  UG!

 Another highlight of the weekend was the girls performing at the Festival of Trees with their ballet class.  They both did soooo well.  I was a very proud mama!  

 

 

I couldn't be more thankful.  Life is great right now.
