 Pre-Thanksgiving Dinner at the River House. Adrian smoked a delicious turkey. Scott is getting ready to leave for boot camp. So, everyone was together one last time. Kids had fun playing together. Nora is all swaddled up feeling cozy.

Turkey Treats we made with our friends the Chavez's 

School Thanksgiving dinner. The kids were suppose to bring an item of their choice that is a family tradition. Addie wanted me to make 10 layer rainbow jello. The entire time at the feast she kept asking when is it time for jello. I had brought Josh and Nora. Josh was running around like a crazy man.

 We headed where things are bigger & better for Thanksgiving. Texas was good to us. However, we had a homealone experience where our alarms didn't go off. We left an hour late. Tim backed into his car & broke the mirror off. They let me on the flight to save seats then kicked us off. Never again will I not be the first to do online check in BOO! They had overbooked the flight. I cried... I was sure there was someone better to kick off that flight. We made some $ because of it. When we finally got on our flight; the flight was just getting in the air. I was holding Nora, and Addie says, "Mom my tummy feels sick." Then she threw up... luckily there was a tender mercy (one of my young women was in the 3rd seat) She totally helped me clean Addie up. Kids did great on the flight. Once we got to Texas we barley made it by the way. When we stopped down in Amarillo there was snow, & they kept de-icing the plane I didn't think we were going to make it. Oh yeah & I had to have a middle seat with Nora in between two of the nicest guys. They loved Nora... because she is the nicest baby ever. She did not make one peep. I was so nervous being in the middle these guys were big & when I first sat down they didn't seem friendly. The second day we were there we stayed in a big storm came in. We took Addie to the American Doll store she was thrilled. Josh got to go to this cool place where they had lots of trains set up. He was so loud squeeling with delight. Thanksgiving was fun & my sister made delicious food. The boys were so nice to do art with Addie. I think she used all the paper in the house. Josh was upset when the boys would play defense on him in basketball. He kept yelling at them to lower the hoop too. We played some fun games. The littles watched a fun christmas show. We had a family friend Lauren come over for dinner. OH and Tim's identity got stollen. We were hit by the target scammers.
