Thanksgiving Time!

We had a FABULOUS Thanksgiving. We watched the Macey Day Parade, we cooked, we played, we had friends over for WAY TOO MUCH food, we went sledding and we had a fun relaxing evening together as a family. Here are some photos of our evening together.

Grandma B. sent us a fun recipe for Pilgrim hats so we spent some time making these delicious little treats to start our evening off just right.

Here is a shot of the kids at the half way point on our hats.
For entertainment while we waited for the chocolate to harden we video taped the kids singing songs. This is one of their songs. While we DEFINITELY do NOT proclaim to be the Osmonds or the Vontrapp Family Singers we sure had fun performing!!

And finally... the finished product!!!
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!

I can just hear Jessie saying "Parcheezi!" What a smile! It looks terribly, terribly (messy) FUN! Thanx so much for posting the pix, and the song was interesting . . . one I haven't heard. Do these kids know what "the odds" mean? Luv, Mutte

The song that the kids were singing in the video is from a movie called "Scripture Bugs." It is one of those feature family films. My mom bought it for them and the LOVE it!!
