Thanksgiving #2

Today we had Thanksgiving dinner with the Birchell's. Jake and I were assigned cranberries, apple pie, sweet potato casserole, and lemon meringue pie. We started baking at ten this morning and finished at three thirty. We had a lot of fun, and were proud of our pies! They were yummy and better looking than last year. The dinner was delicious, as always, and there was a lot of entertainment. 
Brilee loves to clap and cheer and play Patty Cake. 
Our little helper (destroyer???) was fine as long as she had the measuring spoons in her hands.
All of our hard work.
Getting ready to head out the door. (We have to make all of this again for Thanksgiving Day... UGH!!!!)
Just getting started.
Fun Girls!
All they want for Christmas is their two front teeth!
Dinner time.
Isn't he the cutest?!?!
Jake went ahead and took an already wild party and made it worse. He wrestled with Caleb and Jens and got them so wound up. 
The girls dressed BreAnna up as Santa.
Beth, Bri, and I went out to visit Carly Saturday. We had such a great visit, and I am so proud of Carly and how far she has come. She is so awesome and I had soooo much fun with her Saturday! We went to Olive Garden, Old Navy, Forever 21, Costco, and the coolest place ever Gardner Village.

I've heard of Gardner Village. My neighbor loves it. I look silly dressed up as "Santa Clause"
