Thanksgiving Part 2 (because part 1 isn't working)

So I have been trying to get a Thanksgiving post done for the last week and I can't get one set of my pictures to load to the blog. All of my pictures from the actualy holiday meal and most of the weekend aren't working, but I did get pictures from our Saturday night to work. On Saturday night we celebrated Lumpy's 60th birthday at home (it was back in September, but this was the first time we were all together). Then we headed to the Intrust Arena to watch the Wichita Thunder play in a hockey game. It is a bit of a family tradition and we all had a great time. The kids looked especially cute and Molly is still talking about "Funder Dog." I'll continue working on getting the rest of the pictures up.

Hands down, my favorite picture of the weekend

We put together a "Colorado Fishing" gift basket for Dad

Instead of a cake he got a box of his favorite caramels

The kids weren't too sure about Lumpy in these glasses

Too bad these two can't relax!

Little sweetie

This weekend we put up our Christmas decorations, I know it is early but we will be gone for thanksgiving and I wanted it to be finished when we get home. Anyway, Molly loves the tree and all of the decorations and it has been fun to watch her reactions. Today she was being really quiet while I was cleaning up from lunch (which can sometimes be dangerous). After investigating and being sneaky with the camera I captured this.

We have some work to do...

Mike's Mom bought Molly the Fisher Price Little People Nativity Set when they were in town visiting last week. She really loves playing with it and we have told her who each of the characters are. However, I think the general meaning of the story might not have fully sunken in yet because last night while she was playing she held the baby "Cheezus" (as she calls him) and walked him up to the manger and said "Get out of my barn!". Hmm...

This picture is totally unrelated to this story, but cute.

Fancy Party Saturday

Molly decided that she needed to get dressed up for a fancy party today and was disappointed that mommy couldn't wear one of the fancy princess dresses so we improvised. She and get friend had a lovely time at the party.
