It's Turkey Day !!

Happy Thanksgiving! We had alot of fun today and boy were we busy !!

Preston and I making pumpkin pie, It is our first attempt, he assured me we could do it...Here we go


Rolling out the crust...Mommy's turn
Preston's turn...
Destiny's turn...

The finished product, well the uncooked finished product Grumps and Destiny cutting onion for the stuffing
Grumps and Nana cutting squash
While dinner was cooking, Grumps, Des, Pres and I enjoyed a game of Skip bo !
These are turkey Placecard holders that we made for the table. How cute?
Preston made this turkey from paper mache in school. What a brave kindergarten teacher Mrs.Kershaw is...20 5 year olds doing paper mache !! It looked great on our dinner table.
The table is set, its almost time to eat. I'm tired. Kuddos to all you people out there who really enjoy this cooking thing !

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone.

Today I am thankful for my husband who supports all my crazy ideas with a smile. To my dad for making us laugh all day long and for making the kids feel like he is their #1 fan. For my mother in law for doing ALL the dishes, for Destiny for bubbly bouncing about making sure everyone is doing what they are supposed to be and encouraging us along the way.. you will make a great supervisor some day. For Preston for going head first into his first Canadian Thanksgiving, for encouraging me to go the extra mile with the homemade pie (i sooooo wanted to buy one) You were a big help today kiddo. I love you guys, and I thank God for giving me each and everyone of you in my life.

...stay tuned our thanksgiving fun did not end here.
