We are Thankful

For family, good weather, being an eternal family, and smart independent baby boy, a job to bring in money, parents who are always willing to help us out, being members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, the Christmas season, a blog to keep our family in the loop, and many more things that would take forever to list.

Thanksgiving this year was with McKenzie's family. We had Thanksgiving and Christmas all in one weekend. It was a weekend we will never forget! We had lots of fun with the family. We even tried Black Friday shopping. I promise you, you will NEVER see me Black Friday shopping at midnight again. It is just ridiculous. 
A random picture of Max from the weekend. He looks SO FAT! He really isn't as fat as this portrays him to be.

Marcus got a turkey from work. Yes, I said work! Yay! While he is only very part time at the golf course (again...)  it's a job, and helps us very much. I'm very grateful for it. So, we cooked the turkey and he cut it. It wasn't that hard. There we no bones :)

Max loves to eat. He is getting to the point that he doesn't want us feeding him anymore. He doesn't have any teeth yet, so we can't give him very many solid food. Any ideas to help us out? He eats lots of cheerios, bread, formula, and hot dogs.

At our Christmas party each family made graham craker houses. This is ours.

Max has found a new favorite position to eat every meal. He has to have one leg on the high chair. He has also learned how to crawl out of the high chair. Time to start using the seat belt.

We had pizza the day after Thanksgiving. One of the little kids left their pizza on the stool, and Max found it. He hid out trying to eat the whole piece, but we ruined the fun and took it from him.
December is going to be very busy. We get a visit from Grandma Nolan, Uncle Kameron becomes a missionary, a 1st birthday, Forgotten carols, Christmas, everything that goes along with the holidays, and possibly moving! Should be fun! There are also many more pictures from the weekend on my Mom's Blog. If you so desire, check them out.
