Last year, around November or so, the country as a whole celebrated Thanksgiving. And now that I only vaguely remember it, and have only a handful of pictures from the weekend (none of which I took, I didn't take a SINGLE picture the whole time), it's as good a time as any to blog about it. And let's face it, anytime I get to hold a sweet snuggly baby for a few days is a good holiday in my book.
The highlight of Emerson's Thanksgiving weekend was the abundance of aunts available for hairstyling.
Emerson wasn't the only one who enjoyed hair styling over Thanksgiving.
I never thought I would see the day when my daughters would fix their daddy's ponytail with their toy curling iron.
Food was cooked and eaten, football games were watched, friends visited. Val and I got out and Black Friday shopped at 5am Friday morning like AMERICANS DO. Not, like crazy people, at 5pm on Thanksgiving day. I refuse to support that practice. I will not Christmas shop on Thanksgiving day. Too much overlapping of the holidays. And while we're on the topic of Holiday Overlap, we do Thanksmas with Brandon's family the day after Thanksgiving, and exchange Christmas gifts with them then.
Also known as "The Day Aidan Got the Yellow Shirt that He Has Worn 30 Times Since".
And the matching hat that the Friday morning shoppers found and couldn't resist getting for the A-man.
We had lots of fun cousin-time, taking adventure walks and enjoying sunny days playing football in the backyard, and, of course, playing Angry Birds
We had a great time with family celebrating Thanksgiving!
