Thanksgiving

Slade usually doesn't watch TV. I caught him in action after I had also busted him eating Gavin's Poptart, again...
Gavin and Art have a tradition to decorate/build a gingerbread house over the Thanksgiving holidays. I think they did a great job!
Slade is a busy body! If we don't make sure the closet is closed tight; he will get the broom and mop out and go to town. As shown... He removed all the trash bags from the box and threw them in the garbage can. Makes sense... :-)

Even though Slade has his own set of baby, plastic golf clubs; he prefers Gavin's. This is what he does... He can actually hit the ball quite well. I doubt Art had anything to do with that! ;-) This is Thanksgiving night after returning home from PaPa's. He must have left his pants there...

Gavin and Emily


Emily is Sandra and Rusty's newest precious baby. She is a very good baby and Gavin loves her so much. He now has a baby sister on his Christmas list and if Santa brings him one; he will be in trouble! :-)

We went to PaPa's for Thanksgiving. It was a lovely day. The weather was awesome! Margaret and her family cooked everything; which was great... they're my new heroes! :-) All the food was delish! My dear Aunt Pat and Uncle Ralph joined us as well; which is always such a blessing. We love them dearly and it's such a pleasure to spend time with them. It was also so wonderful to see sweet baby Emily my new niece! She's an angel. She's had a difficult time practically her entire life with her health, but you would never know it because she is so easy going and lovable. Hope to see them again for Christmas and pray her treatment goes well. After lunch PaPa loaded up the kiddos for an awesome hayride! There were so many children with Margaret's grandchildren; each kid had someone around their age to play with. They had so much fun! The Thanksgiving holidays were great for our family. The day after Art and Gavin started to putting Christmas lights up outside as I did the indoor decorating. I also did some online shopping. We do NOT brave shopping over the holiday! No way... I didn't get too many pics, but we did have a great, long holiday weekend! :-)
