Happy Thanksgiving

| Our little pilgrim |
To continue our Thanksgiving tradition we ran the local Turkey Trot 5K, an awesome beginning to the day. The boys rode along in their stroller and afterwards Matthew got to do his first race!! He was super excited and had been practicing for weeks. This is actually the first race he did (in his stroller) on his first Thanksgiving. So proud of my little runner man!!

Then we raced home to shower and change and help some friends put on an awesome Thanksgiving feast.
We were in charge of frying the turkey, concocting our annual giant batch of butternut squash chowder and the boys favorite dessert, Strawberry Pretzel Salad. While the day started out cool, by the time we sat down to eat outside it was PERFECT. Stuffed is not a good enough word. All the adults were full, the kids had a blast playing for hours...and not a single fight or disagreement.

We finally were able to get up and roll our stuffed selves home where we settled in for the Pumpkin Chunkin' Marathon on TV.
We certainly miss having family close but had a great Thanksgiving day with some of our Alabama family.
