Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! We celebrated with a quiet Thanksgiving at home, just the three of us. Darrell, unfortunately, has to work this weekend so we could not travel. Brendan had his first turkey- diced up tiny pieces of Gerber’s turkey sticks. LOL. We made butterscotch haystacks and ate Honey-Baked ham, turkey & Sweet Potato Soufflé. Yum!!
We also had Brendan’s photo taken with Santa at the mall. It took a few minutes for him to get frightened so we got a pretty good shot! He is such a joyous boy! But he did NOT light being sat next to the animatronic elf whose arm moved up and down! LOL.
