Happy Thanksgiving

Molly writing (she loves to write!!) My elf is here and I love him. She did this all by herself. She did not ask me how to spell any of it. Boingy came on Friday and he forgot to move Saturday. Oops. The look on her face when she came down and Boingy was still in the tree--priceless! I felt like a horrible mom, making up something that would satisfy her (too much turkey and flying made him really tired). Phew!
Molly and her journal.
Molly loves to decorate. This is a buffet we have in the den and all of the Christmas trinkets she could find to decorate with.

We had a low key day for Thanksgiving, just the four of us for lunch. It was great to relax and watch the parade and get into the spirit of the holidays. We had eaten by noonish and were napping at 2. What a great day!! Jeff tried to talk me into Cracker Barrell for lunch, but I just couldn't do it!

Molly had been talking about Thanksgiving Feasts at school, and she asked who was coming to our feast. We said no one, it was just us. She said as we sat down to eat our feast at lunch "this is not a feast, it is just dinner". Jeff responded with "anything that takes longer than 10 minutes to cook is a feast at our house." It was hilarious. She just didn't understand why no one was at our house. It was a great day though.

I asked Molly tonight if she was ready to go back to school, and she said emphatically, YES!
She said she loves school and does not like days off. She is funny.

Just random pics of Molls and Will playing and Will doing what he does best, getting into things. I found him tonight with a notepad he had scattered all over the kitchen floor. When I walked in, he looked up with such pride in what he had done. He loves balls, and will play with them for hours. He and his sis continue to have a great time together. Who could ask for more? We are truly blessed.
