Thanksgiving is almost here!
I LOVE THANKSGIVING! When I think about thanksgiving I think about my Grandma Earl's home. She always made the best turkey and homemade stuffing. My grandpa would be sitting near the kitchen watching the kids get pomegranates out for the fruit salad and my sister and I were in charge of the cream pies. We have a huge family and we always made 8 cream pies and my aunt Audrey made 10 fruit pies. All the women would wear the family turkey aprons and everyone was always so happy.
This year we are having a small thanksgiving at my house. We are going to have my parents, Devin's parents, and also Carlene and Nate. My mom is coming down early and we are going to create the feast! I'm so excited. This isn't the first year I am doing the Thanksgiving dinner, last year was and I didn't do so well. In fact I messed up on all the food. The turkey was so dry, my stuffing tasted like potpourri, and my rolls were like little rocks. I'm hoping I can learn from my mistakes and have a better one this year.
Well Kamille is almost 14 months old. She loves to talk on the phone, run from me, and mess up my clean home. She likes it when both her grandparents come over and play with her (I think she gets sick of playing with just me) and I love the break! ha ha She is eating everything and so far likes all food that we give her. She likes soft blankets and toys and just started being all sweet to her baby doll. She gives it her blanket, kisses the little head and if I say anything she shhh's me and I can't stop laughing. She likes it when people chase after her. Her little legs move as fast as she can. She weighs in at 20 lbs and she is just over two feet tall. She's in the 20-25% but that's been her number since she was born. I was looking back at pictures from a year ago and it made me so sad to see how fast she is growing and changing.
We are almost coming up on a year in Stanley, North Dakota. It's the longest we have ever been in one place with one job. It's been so nice. Devin and I are also coming up on our 2 year anniversary in December! I am so glad I get to spend forever with him. He's an amazing husband and father.
I hope you have a fantastic Thanksgiving. :)
until we meet again,
