Thanksgiving

We ALL went to bed with full tummies....even Connor!!!

Thanksgiving this year was great! We woke up early Thursday morning so Emily and I could go get an early run in together, which to our suprise was very cold and windy.....All the hard work though paid off later in the day.....Mac and Darrin went to a local high school to play flag football, a fun and luckily injury-free event! Then we had a couple of hours to spare to get our part of the yummy dinner ready for later in the day. I made a homemade strawberry rhubarb pie, green bean casserole, and a frozen pumpkin pie. Mac on the other hand was determined to have a chocolate pie, so he made a suprisingly very yummy choloate pudding pie, which was the hit of the party!

We were lucky enough to spend Thanksgiving day with family and friends at the Mattson's home! We had such a fun time Eating, playing on full tummies with the kids, playing apples to apples, and laughing lots! We're so lucky to have made such great friends here in Austin! And this year we had Mac's brother and sister-in-law with us!!! Definitely a favorite holiday!
