Happy Thanksgiving!

Tonight I'm sitting here thinking "Wow. We really do have  A LOT to be thankful for." We are so blessed and we need to spend more time being thankful every day. 
As for today, it was full and fun. The girls zonked out on the ride home tonight and are all cozy and snug in their beds. I'm ready to do the same but first Mommy and Daddy are contemplating some leftovers for a bed time snack. Is it a bad idea to eat sauerkraut right before bed?
Here's a little synopsis of our day:
The parades were a big hit. Leyna loved all of the dancing and music and Cora was thrilled to see her favorite characters. When we got to the end of the Macy's parade and finally saw Santa, Leyna asked me if he was just a man in a costume :( This girl is going to be a tough sell. We need some "Miracle on 34th Street" magic.
The weather was pretty nice today and the girls had some fun playing in Pee Paw's leaves.
A little family portrait (unfortunately I had the camera on the wrong setting)
Leyna locked Cora in the dog crate and she didn't even care :)
Quite an impressive bird
Watching "Rudolph" with Pee Paw
Almost everyone. Aunt Marty and Cora didn't make it into the frame. (Cora was in the chair in the foreground but just too short to be caught on camera)
Leyna read about 7 books to Rudy
And we capped off the night with all the girls' favorite tunes on Pee Paw's iPod.
Cora singing "Cotton Fields" to Nana and Great Grandpa
