Turkey Day Has Come and Gone

Monday, November 30th, 2009

Our family had a great Thanksgiving weekend!   We got to see everyone and eat great food. I even made a dish of deviled eggs (remember cooking isn’t my thing!)  I send thanks out to my mom and mom-in-law for hosting my large and loud family!  We love you!

We decorated our tree and went and saw the  A Christmas Carol in 3D (kids didn’t so much like it FYI).  Here are a few pics from our weekend, including a bike ride yesterday that was a bonus due to the nice weather we had!

Thanksgiving means cousins wrestling!

A Fun Thanksgiving Activity

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

IMGP3512I have to send the love over to FireMom at StopDropandBlog.com for this contest. It kept my kids busy when I needed them to be busy and we also are entered to win something and those who know me know that I love to win!  Check out this coloring contest for a Christmas DVD. This DVD would be great for the kiddos to watch while I wrap gifts….or take a bath!

While your cooking the turkey (or watching mom cook the turkey) the kids can be coloring up a storm and get in t the mood for the upcoming Holiday Season.

*This picture was colored by the famous Mita who made her first snowman just last year and cannot ever recall watching Frosty the Snow Man (did we really miss it last year?  Was I that busy?)
