Review of Thanksgiving

We spent the day at Steve's Mom and Dad's....the kids had a good time..yummy food, laid back, not too much drama or commotion. The kids played with their cousins Mike and Shelby. Kyle had a miserable time....he had strep throat and wasn't really able to eat and I think he had the stomach flu on top of that. We are still trying to recover from this weekend. LOTS of fun messes for me to clean up.

Today we spent the day straightening. Trying to get the tree up. The kids were actually really good helpers. I've decided that I am going to have a list of chores each day. None of this lounging around all of track break. Hoping to have a good experience with all of them home. I'm really working on facilitating the getting along and working things out.

Last night I sewed together all of the quilt squares for the blanket I am making for Brandon....it is going to be so cute. Excited about little projects I have in mind for the kids. Will share as they become a reality.

**Do you love Kyle's mohawk? Kade's been trying to give himself one ever since...too bad Lauren decided to cut the front of his hair Saturday. Now he looks like one of the Beatles. I really need to go and get that fixed.
