Happy Thanksgiving

It was just the four of us for Thanksgiving this year, but we still put the leaf in the table because nothing says holidays like a table leaf. Thanksgiving somehow managed to both relaxing and a blast. These kids are ready to dig in and feast:


Carving the bird:


Frankie got a little of everything on his plate, but the sweet potatoes were by far his favorite. Phoebe only ate turkey. We asked Phoebe what she is thankful for and she said turkey. We're sure there is more, but that's all she could come up with.

We made a turkey, stuffing, gravy, brussels spouts, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, and two pies. It just isn't Thanksgiving without leftovers for a week.


Frankie wears his turkey hat that he made at school. He looks kind of like Chief Jay Strongbow.


Phoebe models her Indian outfit that she made at her school. The kids in her class all got very traditional Native American names - Phoebe's Indian handle is "Princess Laughing Brook"!!


We forgot to bring the camera for the traditional post-feast walk around the neighborhood, so we snapped a few shots when we got back to the house. Frankie and Donut:


Little brother and big sister.


Stealing a Thanksgiving smoochie:

Happy Thanksgiving, and stay tuned for some holiday movies.
