Thanksgiving

We are getting ready for Thanksgiving around here.  My parents and Grandmother arrive tomorrow, so all rooms are being cleaned and the rest of the house is being straightened.  I have most of the cooking done - thanks to a quiet weekend.  I know Thursday will still be crazy because throwing it all together always takes a LOT of coordinating.  Caroline will help with the table today and Cole is going to make turkey place cards/napkin holders.

Our menu includes turkey, sweet potatoes, 3 bean casserole, cranberries, rosemary rolls, roasted brussel sprouts and we will have chocolate and pumpkin pie.  Hopefully we will have something for everyone!

We don't have too many plans.  We will head to Cowboy Stadium on Saturday to watch the Carroll Dragons and see Caroline in the band. They do a great playoff show called "LIDS".  The drumline plays on trashcans while the rest of the band, cheerleaders, and Emerald Belles dance a little jig.

I am also hoping to get our Christmas decorating finished by Sunday.  We are all excited to get into the holiday season.  Heck!  We might even start decorating today!
