I'm thankful for .......

I was so thankful for everyones help this year for the feast! Everything tasted so good and it's great to know my girls will be able to take over one day and cook the same yummy meal that my mom taught me how to cook.(BTW Maddie's not asleep just pretending)


Kim and Blair


Donny, Colleen and McKelle


Mandy and Cam


Mom and Cathy catching up on some reading and relaxing!!


Brody and Jocelyn with the guitar that her dad made her. It's pretty awesome!


Yummmmmmmmmmmmm turkey dinner!




Papi taking a power nap!!


Maddie's favorite thing is to dress up and she did plenty of it this weekend. Mandy was so happy that she couldn't put her swim suit on like she does at home all of the time so she opted for Mandy's work out top. She really wore that almost all weekend and I can't believe I didn't get a picture of her in it.


Maddie and Nollie are getting acquainted.


Cam's reading bedtime stories!!


McKelle found a website that you could put pictures of our heads on these dancers and it was seriously the funniest thing ever!


Blair and Tag going for a ride on Cathy's 4 wheeler. A little chilly but not to bad.



We got together with some of the Ayotte clan and played some games and ate yummy treats! Maddie and Tag were missing Ada and Boston the whole weekend and were excited to have some kids to play with. Thanks Aja for bringing Gage and Dallas!'And thanks Diana for planning the party!



We went to the Newgate Mall to see Santa. Maddie was so excited and asked for a duckie? and Tag was afraid but knew if he wanted some toys he'd better tell Santa so he did. (In looking for fruit snacks that McKelle had hid in the storage room, Tag found the kids presents in bags that I hadn't wrapped yet. He came and got me to come and look and showed me what he had found. He wanted them so bad and you all know me -aaah! what do I say, so I pointed to the shelf where I had Boston's toys and said that they were for Boston and he would get some for Christmas. He cried and said, that's a long time. Well he took it that the iron man, and the ninja turtle thing were for Boston. So in telling Santa he said "you know the iron man, and ninja turtle thing that are for Boston, I want them.")
We missed Jason and Claudia and the kids but they'll be here for Christmas and I'm thankful for that and everything else in my life!
