Thanksgiving 2009


Dear Abigail,

Mommy has been very busy lately, so I kind of slacked a little on the blog. Good news is I have an excellent memory, or rather, I took lots of photos, so I can catch us up rather quickly. I shall begin with Thanksgiving...
This year, we went to Aunt Amy & Uncle Martin's for Thanksgiving, and what a feast it was, well, aside from the awful brussel sprouts. Yes, the crazy Clark side of your family eats those at Thanksgiving. Don't worry, Mommy made green beans for you (and me!) You, however, didn't need the green beans because you filled up on apples! Aunt Amy had these miniature apples, maybe they are called crab apples, but they weren't supposed to be for eating, as they were a part of her centerpiece. But, you saw one and asked what it was and immediately started saying "apple" - perfectly! So we of course gave you one. Then another, then another! I think we were so happy you could say apple so perfectly. You loved it, too, as it was the perfect size for your tiny hands!

Poor Aunt Amy had to do without crab apples for the centerpiece. It still looked lovely though, and she didn't seem to care. She just loved tickling you to death...


The turkey was done and it was time to eat! You thought it was mighty yummy, for sure!

We, of course, spent the night, and even tried to do our annual hike. Unfortunately, we picked a lake to hike around and it was SUPER freezing. And, unfortunately, your mommy and daddy were bits of a wimp and decided half way through to turn around - okay, it was more like 1/14 of the way through! It was super cold!!

All in all, another great thanksgiving! And this, my love, is where it got SUPER busy...
