Thanksgiving Day Pictures

Thanksgiving Day

We had a wonderful day. We had great food, great company, and a great time just being together. I hope to get some pictures posted soon, probably a slide show. Sidney invited his good friend Heiko for dinner and then we all played Rock Band. It was great, even Makenna joined in by dancing.
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving as well. We have so many things to be thankful for.

Brian's Surgery

Brian had surgery today in order to have a knot removed from his chest. It has been sent to pathology for testing so we'll keep everyone posted. On a lighter note...he did great and he was hilarious under the influence of anesthesia. Even the nurse was talking about how funny he was. He was given instructions to eat/drink only clear liquids but the whole way home he kept talking about pizza. I put my foot down to that but then he said he wanted chicken tortilla soup from On the Border. So yea folks, we had soup and a lot of chips and salsa...don't tell the doctor!

Don't let the picture fool ya...he was just playing around

acting pitiful for the camera.

Playtime

Starburst

Makenna has a big bucket of toys and her latest thing is take every item out one by one and throw it back over her head. However, there is one item that always catches her attention longer than any other one...a package of Starburst from Halloween. She's been trying her hardest to get that little package open....she tries every night. She tugs and pulls but nothing...she's so cute to watch. I don't know what we're going to do when she's finally successful.
