Oh i know, it’s already December…but Fiona’s first Thanksgiving was a fabulous success. We are very fortunate to have both of our families so close and even more fortunate that they get along so well. This year Greg’s parents hosted Thanksgiving but my whole family was invited so we were all together for the day. Fiona had a wonderful time and was very surprised to see everyone together in one place. She completely embraced the holiday for it’s “truest” meaning and chowed down on everything in site. She ate so many potatoes I thought she would burst, followed up with some small bites of pumpkin pie…and if that wasn’t enough we had to hid the chex-party-mix from her because she would manage her way to it no matter where we put it!
The next day was our annual “cookie Friday” at my mom’s house in Enumclaw. We gather there every friday after thanksgiving and make 100’s and 100’s of Christmas cookies. This year my friend Tami from work made it to the party and she let the Martha Stuart side of her fly! Grandma was excited to share this tradition with Fi and Fiona entertained us all!
What on earth do you do w/ all those cookies?
Looks like fun. I hope to start the Christmas cookie tradition in the Mount household too… but to a MUCH smaller scale. ha ha
