Thanksgiving Road Trip

This year, Thanksgiving was to be with my parents, but we decided to go to Dan and Angela's instead. Mammy and Guy Guy didn't mind at all.  It seemed like it took forever to get to their house with all the holiday traffic.  The back of the Tahoe looks like we are moving. We took a small matress for Maggie since they have a two bedroom house.

Uncle Dan and Matt decided to be complete hillbillies.  Sitting on the front porch shooting bb guns.  Seriously? 

Abby and Maggie helped make the homemade biscuits for Thanksgiving dinner.

The girls enjoying snacks before dinner. 

I can't remember where Maggie was (probably playing in the dirt), but she didn't want to be in the picture.

The day after Thanksgiving, Aunt Angela and I took the girls to downtown Wimberly to play. This tree is huge!

We all had so much fun on this trip. Thinking about going down there every other year for Thanksgiving from now on!

Tractoring Around

Until today, Mallory has been scared of the riding lawn mower.  She would be willing to sit on it (in the garage) as long as the motor wasn't on.  Today she became a little braver.

Maggie was willing to try it out as long as Dadda drove her around.

Mallory's Kindergarten Thanksgiving Feast

Today was the Kindergarten Thanksgiving Feast.  These moms went all out for these little kiddos. I was really impressed.  The kids had a full meal given to them during afternoon snack time.

Mallory in line with her turkey hat.  Each class wore a different themed hat.

Enjoying her Thanksgiving meal.

Maggie enjoying some food as well.

Pirate Izzy

Look who now wants to be Pirate Izzy.  I bought this on clearance and she won't take it off.

Maggie's First Performance

Tonight was Maggie's first preschool music program.  She chose to wear her new dress (which now seems to just be a lon sweater) and a nice pink bow.  This beautiful smile was the only time Maggie smiled all night.

We got Maggie to her classroom and she was hesitate to go in which came as no surprise.  I just prayed and hoped she would not flip out on stage.  When Maggie came into the worship center she started bawling when she saw us.  Mrs. Dawn was very sweet and held Maggie on stage to help calm her fears.

Maggie never sang one word, but stood there quietly.  Not what we had hoped, but much better than it could be.  Mallory was pretty nervous at her first program as well. Here's to hoping she is less scared at the next one.
