It was so fun to have my sister and her family with us again this year for Thanksgiving. I'm very thankful that, for the most part, everyone was healthy (which isn't always easy with 11 kids)! We made some fun new memories....like learning a new game called Farkle and going down to Seattle's Pike Place Market. I'm truly blessed to have such a wonderful family!
Asha and Lana helped me decorate the table. They were great helpers!!
The turkey and me (we bonded over spices).
Ernst gets the hard job every year.....dissecting the big bird!
More helpers....Aubrey and Lana working on the gravy!
Everyone is ready to eat! One side of the table.....
.......now the other side.
Maybe it was the turkey or the excitement of 11 kids running around.....either way the men couldn't resist sneaking in a little nap. Bet they didn't know I was watching! Hee hee!
We took a few of the girls to Pike's Place Market.....pushing a wagon through the crowds was interestingly exciting. We stopped to see the long line in front of the Original Starbucks. Yep....this is where is all began!
My sister got one of the cool hanging peppers that you see in the background. So many brilliant colors!
One of our other stops was Value Village. My sister and I are thrift store addicts. Here I was dressing Aunika up in some fun apparel.
What great memories!!!
