Halloween/Thanksgiving

Oh yes, I'm posting about Halloween in December.  Surprisingly my little Frozen obsessed daughter did not want to be Anna or Elsa for Halloween.  She wanted to be Ariel, so of course, I had to dress up Owen like Sebastian the crab.  They looked so cute!  The wig did not last past this picture though.

We went to Port Arthur for Thanksgiving, and spent it with the family.  It was nice and relaxing, filled with great food and good company.  We had fried turkey for the first time this year, and it was wonderful.  I think we started a new tradition! Our little man got to have some turkey too for his first Thanksgiving!

During the month of November, I put up a "thankful tree" in our house.  I traced Mady's hand and cut out her handprints to make the leaves.  On them we would write throughout the month various things we were thankful for, and put them on the tree.  It was a great everyday reminder of all that we have to be thankful for.  We will definitely be doing this again.
