Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving! Though we missed seeing our families at home, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving with friends here in Rochester. We feel so blessed to have such great friends. We had a pretty relaxing day....watched the Thanksgiving parade while cooking, took naps (Brandon & Halle), ate dinner with friends and then came home early to go to bed. Things have definitely changed this year...we came home around 8pm this year while last year, Erica and I both stayed up and drove 45 minutes to shop at the outlets which opened at midnight! Maybe next year we will attempt the outlets again when our kiddos don't need us to eat (assuming it works with our husbands schedules)! Here are some pictures from the day:

Brandon and Halle watching the parade (Brandon had been on call the night before which is why he looks tired...)

Since this was the first time in 5 years that I didn't make the turkey, I thought I should at least do something fun!

In her turkey shirt!!"Hey Mom, this is kind of nice to have a built in teether on my shirt! Why aren't all of my shirts like this?!?"
Her hands are always in her mouth!

I just love Halle's shirt. I've never in my life done the black Friday (or Thursday night) shopping thing. I might need to try it out and join you guys next year.

PS I stole one of your pictures; my photo of the girls turned out smudgy.
