Thanksgiving 07

Our Thanksgiving was great. We started off our day going to Mom & Dad Fell's house. We had appetizers first; cheese bread, fruit with banana cream dip, veggies, and (my favorite) celery with peanut butter in the middle! In the mean time Pop Fell took Colin to the creek and had him playing outside. Paulie was inside with us playing on the floor, making some funny faces and dancing when a commercial with music came on. When dinner was ready Mom Fell must have gotten Colin 5 drinks before we started our dinner he wanted soda, juice, milk then chocolate milk he kept getting mad every time she brought something different. Once we got him settled we all dug in and everything was delicious. We had turkey, mashed potatoes, corn, broccoli, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, and sucatash. I enjoy having the immediate family at Mom & Dad Fell's our Thanksgiving was really nice and intimate. After being completely stuffed Mom & I cleaned up the kitchen while the guys watched a little football. You'll see a picture of Kevin on my slideshow sleeping when Richie noticed he was dead asleep he said "Oh wow I didn't know Uncle Buddy came to dinner this year" so Rich wanted me put the caption "Uncle Buddy Jr" under Kev's picture he thought it'd be funny but, the new slideshow website Im using doesn't have the caption option. I told Rich if Aunt Donna gets upset she's coming after you!! haha

After we relaxed and watched some football we headed out to my Aunt Sue's for dessert and also to sing Happy Birthday to my Mom-mom. (Hope you had a great birthday Mommom!) I was really happy to see my Uncle Rich, he was in the hospital this week but we were all glad that he was healthy enough to come home and enjoy the holiday with us. We had dream cake which is a vanilla cake made from scratch, it's my great grandmother's recipe and has been in the family for years. We also enjoyed some strawberry shortcake, and pumpkin pie. We then showed everybody the e-mail with the kids' faces on the elves bodies. It's so funny to see. I'm pretty sure I sent it out to everyone if you didn't get it, it said Sean,Col&Paul xmas picture on the subject line I can resend it to anyone that hasn't seen it. Rich's cousin Jen sent it to me with her family's faces on the elves it was a great idea Jen, thanks for sending it!

We are looking forward to visiting Grandmom Pagnotta this Saturday (12/1) to celebrate her belated birthday. We haven't been to Uncle Danny's in a while so we're excited to go and spend the day there, hopefully we'll get to see Uncle Dan & Aunt Terri to. We all had a wonderful holiday, I hope you all did to. Now it is officially time to start shopping! Im actually half way done and it's not even December yet this is definitely a first for me but, I really want to be able to relax and enjoy the holiday season this year besides it's not easy shopping with 3 kids. I'm hoping that we get the chance to spend time with all of you during the holidays!
