Thanksgiving Festivities

Thanksgiving this year was hosted by me!  Can you believe it?  We had 14 people with kids included!  It was quite the party here.  I was thrilled that I didn't have to do the turkey. Katie did the turkey and it was great...and it was her first time!  All the food was amazing!  Much thanks to the Proctors, Davis', Moss', and Reeves!  We had a great Thanksgiving.
In the morning we went to the annual ward Turkey Bowl.  Chad scored a few touchdowns, and the one to win the game!  
Paige actually fell off this chair.  It sounded and looked worse than it was.  The tablecloth came off, plates, cups and water flew everywhere and she didn't even cry.  It didn't phase her whatsoever.
A party wouldn't be complete without playing the Wii.  Mario Kart and Guitar Hero are the favorites.

On another tangent...I just wanted to share some things Paige has been doing recently.  When she wakes up from her nap, she always yells for mommy or daddy.  If I go and get her, she will ask for daddy, and vise versa.  Then if I say, "No, he is at school." She will say, "Seth seth seth?"  And again I say no.  She then says "Jenka (Jenika)?"  And when I still say no, she says "Brandy(Brandon)?"  She goes through the Davis' whole family.  It is so cute.  Then she will point to the pictures in her room and say "Ganpa, Ganmama (Grandpa and Grandma)?"  I love it.  Its fun to see her really know who people are.
She loves to give kisses too. She kept kissing Seth over and over yesterday.  We could never get a picture of it, but I am determined too.  This little girl just melts my heart.  I am so thankful for her and all the joy she brings!!

We had a great Thanksgiving at your place! Thanks again so much for hosting it! That scared me when Paige fell off the chair, but I am glad it didn't bother her at all.
