Happy Thanksgiving!

Another Thanksgiving is in the books.  Carli really seemed to have a lot of fun this year.

Last Friday was the feast at preschool.  Carli was so excited when I showed up to eat lunch with her.  She had to show me everything in her room.  She also had to have her picture taken with her best friend, Merry.  Of course, Carli ate nothing at lunch.  Too excited, maybe?

Jacob photo bombed the picture.  Not sure how the girls felt about that.

 Thanksgiving at home was a little different than we expected.  It was to be at our house this year since PawPaw at surgery a few weeks ago.  Then, Austin's schedule was changed and he had to work during lunch.  Then Grandma's pneumonia came back and she had to go back into the hospital.  None were able to come for lunch.   With just us and Poppie and a 13 pound turkey, there were plenty of leftovers!  After lunch, Poppie "read" to Carli from a coloring book.  It was a good day.

After we all had a nap, it was time to decorate the tree.  While she was asleep, Joe and I assembled the tree in the living room.  When she awoke, she was mesmerized by the lights.  She had  so much fun putting the ornaments on the tree that she even forgot about cartoons for the evening!

She looks so grown up in this picture.

 

Notice all of Carli's ornaments are crammed together.  Love it!
