Thanksgiving was fun this year. Lorien & Elijah spent Thanksgiving in St. George with his family & Cadence & Amkaa spent it here with us. Cadence really wanted to do the traditional dinner & even bought the turkey herself. She got up early & prepared the turkey & made it for our family. She's the cutest little married wife ever. She is trying new things & learning every day. I'm excited for what life holds for her.
We spent the day resting, playing board games, & playing ultimate frisbee at the school. It was such a beautiful day that we really enjoyed being outside together.
The boys got some video game time which made them happy, & I got lots of board game time in there as well.
Cadence's turkey was beautiful. I made some sweet potatoes, gravy, green bean casserole, & pie while Cadence made some mashed potatoes & rolls.
Our dinner was delicious. I was dumb I didn't get a single picture of all the food or all of us together, but I did get one of Cadence & Amkaa's plates. It was a delicious dinner & everyone enjoyed it thoroughly.
After dinner we put up the Christmas tree & Amkaa put the angle on the top this year.
In other Thanksgiving "adventures," Bella ate a turkey leg bone (like the whole thing) & Trek wound up having to take her to animal hospital while the rest of us went to see Wicked. The bone tore up her insides & gave her a horrible bladder infection. For 5 days she was peeing EVERYWHERE. It was awful. But we got her to her doctor & she immediately went on antibiotics & now she's doing much better.
However, at the vet they did find some substantial bladder stones that are extremely painful for her. She is now on super expensive prescription dog food to help those go away. Poor baby.
Always an adventure.
