Thanksgiving was a protracted holiday of many blessings for Jude. We spent Thanksgiving day at Nana and Pop's house, eating turkey and enjoying our family. On Friday afternoon, we went to Grandma and Grandpa's for Thanksgiving part 2. Besides the turkey dinner, the Friday festivities had two highlights.
First, Jude put on a thrilling "Turkey Review" show, featuring one of the songs he learned at VBS, "Give Thanks." See the video for this part of the show. You'll see that Jude's favorite part is the motions to the word "strong." Also participating in the show were Josh and his girlfriend, Adell. This was our first time to meet Adell and we think she's super sweet, and she earned many cool points by decorating and wearing a paper-bag Indian vest along with the boys.
A second highlight was the amount of candy Jude ate while assembling his gingerbread house. We think that almost as much candy that he pasted to the house ended up in his belly. And now, four days post construction, the house miraculously still stands with candy intact. We'll see how many more days it can endure until it means the jaws of a candy-suppressed three year old.
