Thanksgiving

PhotobucketHere we are at my families get together..  I didn't have my camera so I just stole these pics from my mom:) We started out with watching Maceys Thanksgiving Parade.. Well actually I watched it while Chris ran to the store to get some yams and mapel bars.. yumm..  After that was finished we started mixing, baking and chilling like crazy!  We made candied yams and pumpkin bars with cream cheese frosting, deviled eggs, and pumpkin chiffon pie!  I am pretty sure we ate way to much between the 2 dinners that we went to, but both were great!  We are so lucky that we can make it to both families events.  It worked out just perfect.  I am so thankful for my many blessings.  I don't think it is possible to write them all down.  It is unfortunate that we just live day to day rushing around, thinking about work, dwelling on silly things that will work out fine, and then don't realize how great our lives really are!.  Seems like around Thanksgiving and the holidays coming up I am reminded a lot more about how blessed I am.  So Happy Thanksgiving to everyone and we hope you had a great day!  Bring on the Christmas music now...
