The Thanksgiving feasting continues . . .

 Today has been a really good day. It started with two tarts for breakfast, a slice of pumpkin pie for brunch and then leftover green bean casserole, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes with gravy, and a roll for lunch. Dinner didn't really happen because we were all eating pretty much constantly :) Oh, and I stayed in my sweats (or comfy clothes as we call them around here) ALL DAY. Tim braved the Black Friday sale at Office Max and scored a new computer (ours died last week after 7 good years) and a new version of Photoshop, so now I can once again download my photos off of my phone and onto the computer like a normal person.

Yesterday was pretty wonderful, too. It was nice to not have to travel this year. We had Thanksgiving with Tim's parents and sister a mere 30 minutes away. It was relaxing and enjoyable and everyone got to sleep in their own beds at the end of it. Our Thanksgiving included (but was by no means limited to):
 These adorable little turkeys. Marcus's piano teacher gave him one and I dismantled it and then we made a whole flock? gaggle? What is a group of turkeys? The English major in me is embarrassed that I don't know. Anyway. We put one on each person's plate.
 A delicious feast!
 A sweet baby Zachy who loved everything we put on his tray. Thanksgiving is Zachy's new favorite holiday. It is the perfect holiday for chubby babies who like to eat :)
A birthday! Tim turned the big three four on Thanksgiving. So not only did we have various pies and tarts--we had an ice cream birthday cake, too!
