Happy Thanksgiving!

We hope you all had a good Thanksgiving! Ours was GREAT! We spent the day at my Grandma Pollock's house. It was a HUGE crowd! Everyone was there except Chet & Jamie's family. We usually are not that lucky to get everyone from the family there together, but we came VERY close this year. We had the usual huge Thanksgiving dinner. Then the kids played with toys, while the adults played games. And Abby was so good to take a nap! The following day TeJay had the day off!! It was wonderful to get to spend some family time with him. Nate insisted that since Thanksgiving was over that we HAD to put up the Christmas Tree. Usually I wait until after his birthday, but he wouldn't let that happen! So Saturday was spent "decking the halls". I think that Nate and Emma think the sooner they decorate, the sooner Christmas will be here. It just means more work for Mom as she tries to keep the curious Mr. Parker out of the ornaments and the train. Allready most of the ornaments have been moved to higher ground just out of reach.



Emma put on the Angel topper for this yearThe finished Beauty!

The real reason (I think) that Nate counldn't wait! THE CHRISTMAS TRAIN!! They have played with it every night since. Chirstmas wouldn't be complete in our house with the train!
WE ARE READY FOR SANTA NOW! Guess I'd better get shopping!
