Thanksgiving

"Gratitude makes what you already have enough."

 This year was Tai's first Thanksgiving! But unfortunately Kyle had to work. So last night I surprised him with his very own pumpkin pie WITH a can of whipped cream to go with it!
This morning he did get to go play in a Turkey Bowl with Dakota and Jake, so that made me happy that he at least got to go play some football before going to work.

 This year I spent Thanksgiving at my Grandparents home in Aurora. I hadn't been down there for Thanksgiving since 2011, right before Kyle and I got married.

Tai napped during the meal, but I saved her a plate with turkey and sweet potatoes to eat when she woke up. Of course she loved it!

 I think all Kasen ate was olives, jello and a roll.

He did take 1/2 a bag of wheat thins home with us though! He ate the whole thing in the car then asked me to go buy more at the store.

Kasen spent most of the day playing out on Grandpa Ward's old tractors. His hands were black when he came back in and when asked what was on his hands he said, "Poop!"

His other most favorite part of the day was "cream mouth", he loves having whipped cream sprayed right into his mouth. He didn't even eat any pie to go with it!

 I'm so thankful that I get to be a wife and mother, especially since I have the knowledge of the restored gospel to help me figure out how and why to keep doing it during the times that get rough!

I'm also grateful for the example of my Grandparents that have been married for 57 years today!

I guess I'll give a shout out to Peeka too. It's her first birthday so here's to hoping that the puppy phase will now be phasing out!
