The Friday after Thanksgiving Day was filled with fun! We slept in (that's something to be thankful about!), then got started with our day. A few turkey leftovers for lunch, and Mommy had lots of cleaning up to do. The boys entertained by wearing their new aprons that Auntie sent them and served lots of play food. We might have two little chefs because they took their food prep and serving seriously! So cute!
After the "cooking" was finished, the boys were excited to paint with water colors. They painted for over an hour and produced many wonderful art pieces.
Lincoln had noticed through the playroom window that the backyard tree was literally (his favorite new word) raining leaves. We went out to make some leaf piles, and the boys had so much fun jumping in their piles and tossing leaves around. Beau made such funny faces!
At one point, Lincoln was done making a mess of his leaf pile. He organized it and sat in the middle. Weirdo!
They got back to tossing the leaves pretty quickly . . . so much fun!
We got cleaned up for our annual Thanksgiving Friend Party. The Robisons, Eoffs, Hoggs, Goodmans, and Whiteners joined us for a pizza party on Friday night. The kids enjoyed craft time and made glitter turkeys (that got a huge squeal from the Eoff girls!) and decorated hats. Everyone had to pose with their crafts - it was a great group of kiddos. We missed the Erickson family and Box family, but we can hope their schedules work out next year.
After dinner and crafts, the kids spent some time in the backyard enjoying the nice weather and tons of leaves. Casey was in charge of raking the leaves into a giant pile, and the kids had the best time jumping in the leaves!
Maybe the best picture of the night . . . sweet Jane in crazy mid-jump into said pile of leaves!
The kids also took a few turns on the slide. Clare helped Jackson out, but he was a pro!
These guys have been friends forever . . . love having everyone together after so many years.
Next up is decorating for Christmas, pics to follow!
