We had a lovely Thanksgiving dinner at our home. Our friends the Horner's came over, and everything was YUMMY. Jack made darling name cards for each guest. I was so busy with the food that I forgot to take pictures of the spread this year. Trust me, it was great.
Later that night we invited several families over for pie night. We started this tradition while Tyler was in law school in Nebraska. It is a fun way for everyone to enjoy their family dinner, but still get together. It also allows us to try little slices of a whole bunch of different pies and desserts. This is Tyler's favorite holiday of the whole year! Here are some pics from our evening.
Jack was upset that I would not let him wear this for Thanksgiving dinner. He felt like this homemade Squanto costume was totally appropriate. I am so mean!
Charlie was also horrified that I made him dress up in a silly sweater. See him cringe and put his tail between his legs.
Logan loves Charlie! He is reading him stories and giving him loves. We also noticed that the dog is getting very fat because Logan is constantly feeding him.
During the prep, Logan discovered the candy dishes that I was getting ready to put out for the guests. He has no problems getting himself up on the counter and quickly helped himself to the chocolate. He screamed and screamed when we took him off and moved the candy where he could not reach it. Once the party started, he spent most of the time finding the various candy dishes and either helping himself or making friends with the closest available push over. Sam was a bit sneakier, but he snagged several handfuls too.
Here are all of the yummy pies and desserts! The unofficial theme of the night is "more pie than any human should possibly eat", or "eat till you puke".
Round One for Jack!
I didn't know you had Thanksgiving dinner with the Horners. How fun! Makes me a little jealous that you get to see them so much. Pie night looks fantastic. What a great tradition.
