Thanksgiving 2009

We celebrated Thanksgiving at Scott's Mom and Dad's this year.  Jackie and her family were able to come home this year and help us eat all that turkey!!  We spent Sunday at Mama and Papa's and then hung out at Uncle Jeff and Aunt Ann's for some cake and coffee on Monday night.  Austin had to go back to school on Tuesday and then we hung out at the house all day Wednesday.

Thursday brought the Turkey and the dressing!!! YUM!!!

And then today we all met at Greenbrier for some Hushpuppies and then came back to the house to watch the Iron Bowl.  Although the game did not turn out in our favor, the Tigers at least gave them a run for their money!!!  So win or loose we LOVE our Tigers!!!!

Check out this little turkey...he has had a busy week!!

Jackie also took a picture of us for our Christmas cards while she was here.  Of course it had to be the COLDEST day we have had in a looooonnnngggg time, and the wind-- it was the WORST!!!

Bur we got one pretty good shot and luckily that is all it takes.

So the cards have been ordered and they should be on their way....check that off my list!!

Russell the Elf has made his appearance at the house and we are having fun watching to see where he "hides" each day!  Austin named him because he likes to go to Russell Stover for ice cream cones, so that is how we came up with his name.  You can even ask Jackson "Where's Russell?" and he'll go looking for him.  It's pretty cute.  Ausitn is having fun with it too.

The Snow Villages have been put out and tonight we put the tree up and will get it decorated tomorrow and hopefully put the boxes back upstairs and out of the way.  Then it's on to some wrapping and getting the last minute shopping done!! 

The blog has had it's holiday makeover and hopefully I'll get the rest of the decorating done tomorrow and can put a few pictures up of that.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and also hope Jackie, Rick and Jeremy have a safe trip home.
