Whew. Last weekend we were very very busy with Thanksgiving, Georgia's baptism and then the kick off of Christmas. This weekend promises to be no less busy - it's that time of year again :)
Anyway, let me give you a run-down of our Thanksgiving. We kept it small and celebrated with just Chad, the girls and me. We woke up and made some Thanksgiving crafts (head-dresses and Indian corn).
Sara and I then made the dessert while Daddy smoked the turkey. Yummy!
After we got our "chores" out of the way, we settled in to watch the rest of the parade and saw Santa wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas! It was soon time for Thanksgiving Dinner and Sara was very excited.
Georgia, on the other hand, wasn't so sure what the fuss was all about, but she sure loved her sweet potatoes coated in cinnamon!
After nap time, we went to the park to play a bit and then ended the day with some good ole' fashion football. Hook 'em horns!
On Saturday, we celebrated Georgia's baptism.
Pretty much all of Chad's family and a good amount of my family gathered at the church to see Georgia get initiated into the Church. Here are her godparents, Michele and Mark.
Finally, we ended our long weekend with a trip to the Dickinson Festival of Lights. Chad and I have made it a tradition to tour some sort of Festival of Lights during the Christmas season and we love to share this with the girls. We haven't missed a year yet in the short 8 years we've been together.
This weekend, we'll be picking out a Christmas tree and decorating it. I'm sure I'll have lots more pictures to share from that :)
