Thanksgiving - Good and Bad :)

We celebrated Thanksgiving again this year at my parents house. Just like all the years past we had a ton to eat and had a fun time! This year was a little different. I ate and ate and then came home and about an hour later was in the bathroom throwing up everything!. It was bad. My main concern was that it was food poisoning and was hoping that not everyone would be getting sick along with me. Thank goodness it was just me. Must have been some horrible stomach bug. It took a good week to get a small appetite back.
 In fact, it has taken this long just to want to do a blog about Thanksgiving. I was not looking forward to looking at the pictures and reliving that night. I did however, lose 6 pounds within that 48 hours and have kept it off...even with Christmas here and gone! Woo hoo! Weird, I know.
Kaiya was with her dad on Thanksgiving so I took one picture of her before she left...
Now to pictures with food in it (blah)
I made bacon rolled chestnuts and some of these little sweet potato bite appetizers. Sorta cute.
Over at my parents everyone was getting all the food prepared.
Well some were. Some were also sitting at the table waiting....patiently....
Emma eating appetizers
Had to put this picture in. This is the only picture I got of Gram. Also my parent has the Maloy's over from the ward but didn't get any pictures of them.
After dinner we also relax, visit, play games and look at the ads.
The kids were having fun rolling each other around in the tub
Stacey has been trying to get Jett to like her. He gave her a couple kisses.
Weirdo....:)
Wrestling with Papa!
My First Thanksgiving!
Okay, so these pictures are not in order but I am too lazy to fix them. Back to dinner....
My plate of food. Kinda plain but just the way I like it...
Dad texting Kaylee at the table.
We are eating too much!!
We also skyped with Rusty and Kaylee. Rusty's family has a dog that looks like cheeto so they were doing some online dating.
It's always fun to skype with them to see Rusty's silly faces.
We had a TON of pies. I made a banana cream one which turned out delish!
