Thanksgiving


Thanksgiving this year was at the Dahle's! It was the most satisfying holiday weekend ever. It had a little bit of everything with a most fabulous holiday spirit flare!
I ran a quick errand thanksgiving morning (after the parade) and when I got back to my mom's house this is what I saw when I walked in...how ADORABLE Nyah was standing on a chair with an oversized apron on making crescent rolls with Auntie Sher. She was in Nyah heaven! She stood there for an hour and a half...

Sher let her roll out the dough, cover it with butter, cut them out, and place them on the tray. At Thanksgiving feast everyone knew which rolls Nyah had made with love because they were a little asymmetrical! Even spraying herself in the face with Pam cooking spray couldn't put a damper on this fun activity!

At dinner however all Nyah ate was one slice of banana from a jello salad! AAAHHHHhhh by picky eater! Later that night Auntie Dee put her back on the chair and she pretended to make Thanksgiving dinner all over again and ended up eating a truck-load (well for her.) Now EVERY time we go to my moms she goes right to the drawer that this apron is stored in and wants to get right to work. I later have to amputate the apron from her body to get her ready for bed! :)
Traditional trimming of the tree...and Black Friday ads filled up our evening...however I have to say that Black Friday was highly disappointing this year and we ending up sleeping in! When we did finally make it out all of the sales and bloodshed were over. Oh well there is always next year. :)


Later Black Friday we went to the tree lot to get a fresh cut charlie brown tree for all the handmade ornaments from our childhood. OOoooohhh I love the smell of fresh cut trees!
