Thanksgiving Week 2018 (Siobhan)

~Happy Thanksgiving~

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone! We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving week. We packed in a lot of fun family activities and enjoyed a much needed break!
On Tuesday we went to visit the Huntsville Botanical Garden's Galaxy of Lights. This massive, walk-through light display was amazing! The kids' favorite part was the fake snow :)

 
Next up: Family Movie Night! If you haven't seen the new Christopher Robin movie, you should definitely watch it!
 We spent Thanksgiving with our pastor's family this year. We had such a wonderful time with them and ate lots of yummy food!

Here are some of our favorite Thanksgiving recipes:
Shredded Brussels Sprout Bacon Salad and Warm Cider Vinaigrette
Maple Oat Nut Scones
Pineapple Stuffing
Sweet Potato Casserole
Gingered Sweet Potatoes
Death By Chocolate Mousse Pie
Apple Frangipane Tart
Pumpkin Bavarian Cream Tart
Gingerbread houses!





 Family Walks
 The day after Thanksgiving we always get our Christmas tree and decorate our house for Christmas. This year we went to Trim a Tree farm. It was so much fun! There were donkeys, free pony rides, hot cocoa, and of course lots of Christmas trees!
 











Library trips :)




We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving too!
