Happy Thanksgiving!





Went to the gym this morning, while Jazzy made a turkey craft in Kid's Club. Instead of going out for dinner, which was our original plan, we cooked a tofu turkey, sweet potato rice pilaf, and steamed veggies.... then Moose Tracks ice cream- the best ice cream on the planet. I don't really like pumpkin pie- so ice cream is a better option. Jazzy will have to decide that later.

While we were "cooking", we watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and the Purina National Dog Show. The amazing German Shepherd received second place in the Herding Group, and the short coated Chihuahua named something like "Stand to the Side":)) got second place in the toy category.

Then, the big cookie baking extravaganza that Jasmine had been bugging me about all day. Our cookies looked more like miniature pancakes than they did cookies. Way too much sugar today.

Three year anniversary of our first day home from Vietnam! Thanksgiving Day- so grateful for this little munchkin:)


Watching the dog show wrapped up in a blanket. It was cold and sprinkling today.

Decorating... and eating.. our lovely cookies!
