Thanksgiving eve

Today marks 8 years since the death of my father. I miss him terribly and long to have him here today to know my daughter. I however know he is in Heaven smiling down on us. I cant believe its been 8 years. I don't dwell on his death daily as its heartbreaking as any parents death is, but I take the time today to remember him extra and cry some and miss him extra. So there is my little tid bit missing my daddy...on to life today.

Today I took Makenna and the girls to Kazoom, a daytime puppet show at a local comedy club with the carolina puppet theater. We met Nanny/mommy Angie and her crew of 4 girls there. We had a great time! Makenna was picked to go on stage as an indian girl..but only lasted a few minutes before she wanted to get off....shes so shy sometimes! The babies enjoyed their first Kazoom experience too, they are really getting easier to take places these days.

I've attached a picture of my little indian princess!

Tonight Makenna and I made two apple crumb pies for tomorrow...her first time baking pies with me..she was sooo excited to stir, put cut apples in the measuring cup, and eat apples....shes so fun right now! Im really loving this age!

Jay is working super late (or early i should say) tonight, so it was just princess and I. We had to make a run to Food lion to get cinnamon, after we started the pies we realized we were OUT! Its so nice to have a grocery store within literally 2 minutes from the house.

I then cut up the bread and laid it out, which is usually Jays job. Hopefully I didn't mess it up! I also boiled some eggs to honor hubby's special request of deviled eggs tomorrow...yummm...love him so much!

Here are some pictures of our evening.

Happy Thanksgiving Friends and Family.
