Happy Thanksgiving!

 Today we had a really nice Thanksgiving. We watched the parade and had appetizers in the morning.

 Then we ate dinner in the later afternoon. The kids were really amazed by the electric knife. This is the only time of year we get out the knife (or that roasting pan for that matter)  and so they didn't remember it from last year.

 Then we ate a nice dinner. Hannah thought this was the best holiday ever and ate seconds of everything except cranberries, with sweet potatoes being a big favorite. Clara even ate a few things.

 Joshua enjoyed sharing a drumstick with Daddy. What is it about boys and meat on a stick? Who knows. But he was pretty excited about it. After dinner, the kids had their naps.

Later in the evening, we had pie. Which made Joshua very very happy. He prefers cake, but he also loves pie. The girls really enjoyed it as well, though Clara took three bites and said, "Mmmmm, Yummy!" after each one. And then after the third she said, "All done".  Very Clara-like. After pie, we finished the evening with a movie. We had a super great Thanksgiving and feel so thankful for all the blessings we have in our life.
