Thanksgiving 2014!


I arrived at Katie's home first eventhough I took a scenic route across the George Washington bridge.  I was greeted by lots of smiles, autumnal decor, and that nostalgic aroma of a roasting turkey.  Any traffic woes I might have had melted away as we began our thanksgiving day celebration.  There was a bit of crafting with coloring hand prints and adding stickers but mostly the children enjoyed the toys and each other while mommies talked of thanksgiving traditions and some other fave topics- sleep, lack of sleep, baby wearing and more!  

We kept pretty traditional with turkey, mashed potatos, stuffing, sweet potatos, corn, green beans, collards, and brussel sprouts.  Emily N.'s fresh bread was a hit with young and all and Suzanne who did the honor of carvin' up the bird (as the saying went in my house) also made a scrumpitious pecan pie. (I can type pecan pie and never have to worry about pronounciation, hooray!) other goodies were pumpkin pies and an apple pie, all served with popular cool whip topping!

We shared many of our personal thanks which included gratefulness to our mommy tribe as well as our health, our relationships, and many other things.  We all agree: There is much to be grateful for.

I hope you enjoy a glimpse at today's heart and tummy warming thanksgiving.  Many thanks to Katie for hosting!  And happy thanksgiving to all moms who play, much love to all!!
