Happy Thanksgiving!!! Today was a very relaxed day at home with our boys and their Aunt Tina. We decided to stay home this year because of the twins' colds and Maxwell's hernia. They are starting to feel better now and definitely enjoyed a day of snuggling with us. Tim made an amazing spread of food for dinner and I was in charge of dessert (easy!). Tim has cooked with my mom for lots of holidays in the past so it was easy for him to make our traditional dishes (cigars, meat pies, etc). It makes me feel like we are at home when he cooks HAGGAR food. Tina and I definitely appreciated his efforts.
Those of you that know Charlie well, know that he needed Ranch with his turkey! haha We wanted to share some of his favorite Thanksgiving books with you: "Clifford's Thanksgiving", "Franklin's Thanksgiving", and "Thanksgiving is Here". While I was making the pumpkin pie Charlie said we were making the pumpkin-fly pie (from his Franklin book). He can tell you about each of those books like an adult can retell a novel.

A great day for our family
A wonderful meal to fill our belllies

"If I liked these, they would be really good"
A direct quote from Tina. She tried a cigar for the first time and didn't like it. haha It is definitely an aquired taste - a traditional Haggar dish that MOST of us like.
I got so many hugs today from Charlie - nothing better in this world than hugs from your 2 yr old and smiles from your 2 mo olds.
