Turkey Day '08

Eating rocks! Especially when you are suppossed to be eating 500 more calories a day because you are nursing! I took that out just with the dessert alone. With all the hustle and bustle going on with a new baby and all the company; I didn't really plan what we were going to do for Thanksgiving. Luckily our neighbor, Rachael, invited us to partake with them. We actually had the dinner over at our house since there was more room. The Marchants, Swensons, Kanooths and Tyler Shawcroft came over. We did the Turkey and everyone else did sides. It was good food and good company.

She is so adorable!!! That is so funny she gave you a hickey. I'm glad you had a great Thanksgiving. I'm glad you saw Twilight - it was a little cheezy, but fun. You guys are an adorable little family!!!

Looks like a great day. Few things: Love your red wall and lamps. From the picture I thought the letters said FU! I'm guessing not. Second you look great! I love your hair and color. It's your natural hair color and I love it. and Third Avery looks nothing like an Alien. She is going to be gorgeous. I'm not just saying that. She has got your perfect skin. And Travis's big brown eyes. She looks precious. I love the pick of her laying on Travis's chest.

The Children's Place, gymboree, Carter's and Naartjie are the places I love to shop for Marley! Seriously, I have a shopping problem now that I have a little girl to shop for, it's becoming an addiction!!!
