Thanksgiving Turkey Day!

Today is Thanksgiving Day and Mommy and Daddy were really busy making lots of food.  Dad smoked a turkey outside and we had mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet potatoes with marshmallows on top, and wheat rolls.  They finished it up with pumpkin pie and ice cream.  Of course all of that got rolled into one heck of a good tasting cocktail in Mom's milk.  We almost ate as much as Mommy and Daddy did!  All of that eating made us really happy and we smiled regularly for the first time.

Serena was all wiggly and happy as Daddy took these pics....




Later in the evening we helped Mommy and Daddy put up the Christmas tree.  We weren't sure what that was but apparently big people bring a tree in the house, stand it up, put lots of flashing lights on it, and hang all sorts of shiny things on it.  We hadn't seen anything like it before.  Mommy put a red hat on Sadie and Scarlett but Serena didn't want to wear it.  We played along and tried the best we could to help out.  Scarlett was fascinated and couldn't stop staring at the Christmas tree.




Sadie was so tired from helping that she fell asleep in her pink thermals and Winnie the Pooh socks.  It's hard work putting up ornaments and decorations!  We think we'll let Mommy take them all down some day by herself.



Happy Thanksgiving!
