MY TWO LITTLE REINDEER!

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen. Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen. But do you recall, the most famous reindeer of all? Paris and Preston- the red nosed reindeer! They came home from preschool with antlers and big red noses! Paris left her antlers on most the day, and I couldn't help but giggle when I saw them so happy to be little Rudolphs!

Thanksgiving 09

This year Jared and I invited Jared's family to our home for Thanksgiving. We had a really great time! Pat, Scott, Jennie, Judd and Allie came for the feast- the food was delicious! Homemade rolls, turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, salads, jello, asparagus, 3 homemade pies, and plenty of Grandpa Jack's famous juice! It was a fun day. The day after was kid's day. We took the kids to Jump on It!- a fun play place with trampolines and blowup slides. Then we went to lunch at Ice berg, and had some greasy food and a divine peppermint shake! Kid's day continued with Planet 51 the movie at the district theater- and the kids were pretty much spent. We went home, had leftovers and put the kids to bed. I love thanksgiving. I am thankful for
