Gifts are the love language of a few of our family members, and Ruby and Owen love it! Aunt Mindy brought trick/ gag type gifts this time and they were hilarious! It's not about the nail.
Colorado DuRoss' joined us for this Thanksgiving, and Erika's birthday!
T-day. Here we go. 18 people, two turkeys, go! Turns out we could have gotten away with one turkey...note to self. So much other food, we had WAY too much turkey. I'll be eating turkey for months to come. And, Ruby and Owen don't really care for it, so that is awesome. Ruby announced a few weeks ago that she doesn't like meat because she doesn't like eating animals. I knew one of my kids would do this. Complicated eating, here we come. She does like to make dinner now and offers multiple times a week so we got that going for us. :)
I bought a big canvas the other day. Then, Erika shows up and I started doodling with her. Next thing I know, we are creating this huge group mural of Summit Park. It was really cool how it all came together. All of the kids and most of the adults helped in some way. SO fun.
Even the Legos ate Thanksgiving dinner.
Luckily it snowed a lot the night before so we could get out for a sled run before dinner. SO grateful for this.
Ruby played her special song for us. Abby looks on. She has watched Ruby practice so often I am pretty sure she will know how to play by the end of the year.
Art project is continuing.
Food project is continuing also!
And, it is go time. We did a mannequin challenge which was a highlight for me too. Will have to get that video loaded.
Oh man, up to this again. After a few tries, we did eventually get it to the second floor!
Black Friday, get out and hike, play, treat day!
Finished product.
Piled up on Mindy. This is the go pro perspective on a dog pile. :)
An appetizer of science. :)
And then, everyone was gone, and our house was empty, and we figured we'd get ready for Christmas!!
