Thanksgiving!

 Our own little Theo turkey. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. As usual my pictures were rather limited.  We spent Thanksgiving with both sets of grandparents, Aunt Laura, Uncle Chad, Gianna, Chad's parents and Uncle Dino. We missed Aunt Maria, Aunt Rebecca and Uncle Jim!  The menu included, turkey, Poppy's stuffing, Grandma's sweet potatoes, Scott's green beans, Uncle Dino's fruit salad, rolls, potatoes, apple pie and pumpkin pie made by yours truly.
 Gianna is almost 9 months old and Theo is getting close to being 6 months old! They are both so cute together. Theo was cracking up with laughter when he was looking at Gianna.

Poppa reading to the boys on Thanksgiving.
Uncle Dino and Poppy, cooking in the kitchen.
I love family so much!
 Playing with Aunt Laura!
 The weather was fabulous. The boys played outside with Grandma and climbed up in the tree!
 Some beautiful girls!
 Jacob and Jay made quite the lincoln log fort at Grandma and Poppa's house.  It lasted until Raphael knocked it over.
 Raphael playing in the leaves.
Here's a nice view of Raphael's missing tooth (it still makes me sad).
 We are now preparing for Advent and Christ's birth. Here is our Advent chain.
This year I made an Advent wreath at MOMS.  I added some pine cones, ribbon and silver stars. The boys love lighting the candle(s) every night!
