Thanksgiving

Although Christmas is right around he corner, we need to post about Catie's first Thanksgiving.  Since Mary was not working this Thanksgiving, we were able to host it for the first time at our new house.  Also, Catie was had started to eat more solid foods and we were excited that we would be able to give her some of the bird.

Because of the number of kids this year, we introduced the "kids table," the place we probably all had eaten at in our early years.



Catie had some bird that was masterfully cooked.


Afterwards, Catie showed off her toys to the big kids.


Then a big kid showed off his new toy to Catie.

Ron: "you can post to facebook from the phone"
Cate: "I bet that tastes better than the turkey"

Catie wanted to see what the whole wishbone thing was all about.  She decided to let her cousins play.  It was Carley versus the 2 year-olds, Robin and Paul.



And later that night while the adults were watching the Ravens take on the 49ers, the kids huddled around the portable DVD player to watch The Lion King.


It was a fun Thanksgiving made better by the Ravens winning.

Coming next, Christmas decorating and a visit with Santa.
