This year we enjoyed a rather quiet Thanksgiving day. We normally make the rounds to both sides of the family, which is fun, but WEARS ME OUT. This year, PJ's parents were out of town, so we only went to my Mom's. While we missed seeing PJ's family, it was nice to be able to relax! We were even able to finish early enough this year to take the boys to Utica Square's lights on event (a first for all four of us). The half hour they drug out the "lights on" presentation was rough with an almost 6 year old and 2 1/2 year old (who was going on no nap) in the cold, but totally worth it to see their faces when they finally went on.
We spent some time on the way home talking about what we were thankful for as a family, and I thought I'd share the boys' answers - just too cute.
Britton - "I'm thankful for Santa Claus. And family." (Glad Santa now outranks us)
Leyton - "I thankful for Thanksgiving!" (What can I say, the kid loves to eat)
FINALLY, the lights are on!
Britton was in love with this telephone booth. Not sure what the draw is (it was yucky on the inside), but he would have stayed there if we let him.

Cute, cute boys! And yeah, that Light's On drags on forever at the beginning. This is the first year we didn't go (so much for tradition), but Henry usually enjoys it. As long as you can be in a spot where you can see Santa on the stage! :)
