This year for Thanksgiving, we spent an AMAZING 4 days at home together, just the four of us. That never happens! We soaked up all of this special time with our babies and had a wonderful mini vacation!
On Wednesday, I was off but wanted to workout, prep the thanksgiving meal and clean for the weekend, so the babies went to school for a bit. After getting a lot accomplished in the morning, I met up with Dustin at his work for their employee lunch. It was informal and fun :)

I picked up the babies afterward and had a treat for them :)
The next morning, our elf appeared to celebrate Thanksgiving with us! Cookie Gem has been hiding each morning ever since!
While I cooked an unprecedented Thanksgiving meal of lasagna (by Dustin's request), I had Xavier and Luke put together a Christmas craft ornament! It was super cute and they enjoyed making something special to hang on the tree!
 |
| Silly! |
Up next, I had them decorate a turkey cookie. I found this cute idea on pinterest and decided to go for it!

| Xavier did a great job! |

| Holy Moly... |
Soon enough, dinner was ready and my boys chowed down! It wasn't a traditional thanksgiving dinner but it was yummy and special to us :)
 |
| Drinking juice from my silly coffee mug! |
 |
| Luke had 3 helpings! |
And then came the post-meal snuggles!
The rest of the weekend was spent playing, reading, and lots of other fun stuff! Dustin and I were even able to get away for a few hours for a nice meal and movie. We celebrated 13 years together :)

| Passed out eating lunch! |
Parks and picnics are the best!
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!!! We sure did :)
