Thanksgiving and Things

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving week!  I know we did and I am still full from all of that food! 

The week before Danny told me I could not buy frozen pies....gasp!  I have never made a pie in my life....

so Tuesday before Devoni came over and we made 4 pies.  Pumpkin, Apple, Cherry and Pecan.  We split them so we would both have some for our dinners.  It was fun making them!

Here's our table ready for dinner {we dont have a big formal table yet so we improvised and put both together....}  My dad's bff is in Houston from Colorado until January for prostate cancer treatment at MD Anderson so he and his wife, their daughter and grandson were all at our house for Thanksgiving.  I never thought I would actually use all of my stemware we got for wedding gifts lol

Dad and Jim enjoying the great weather and talking about old times

Charlie and Amberly playing

All of our food - it was SO good!

We just knew Amberly would LOVE all the food...as she never turns down anything...but she surprised us and hated everything except the turkey

"Can you get down?"  Charlie asked lol 

The only time Ambs will ever have a boy in her room

friends for over 40 years

That night we went to Devoni's for the UT vs A&M game and we took our house divided flag with us.  Ambs is in the dress mom made for her last year - it actually still fit but was just a tad bit short.  Danny was an absolute crazy man after the game....he was so excited for the ags!

Friday we had the Wardlow's over for the afternoon and a game of LCR....look at Ambs, already drinking and gambling :)

Granddaddy and Elaine; Uncle Mike was here too

We also got out all of my Christmas Village things - and Devoni and Mom gave me my early gifts - a Wardlow Village would not be complete without a football stadium and a Christmas store {I love my village and will post more pics soon}

Ambs playing in the boxes {in Danny's old Gator shirt he wore as a baby}

That night we went over to Danny's parents to watch the Florida vs FSU game....we determined my shirt is unlucky since both times I've worn it we've lost....lol  Sweet baby watching the game

In their Gator room there's 2 pics of Danny and TJ in this Gator outfit when they were this age, so we put Ambs in the same outfit to add her pic to that shelve.  The elastic in the pants is out lol so her pants kept falling down. 

Watching 5 Little Monkeys with Dad - she loves this

such a diva!

playing peek-a-boo with Grandpa

In other news, last week I started a new job!  I am now working part time {about 15 hours a week} at Pottery Barn!  It is SO much fun helping people decorate their homes and Christmas trees and having adult conversations :)  However, with the 40% discount it is kind of dangerous!  I am hoping to stay on longer than the holidays as so far, I really like it!  

I hope you guys had a great Thanksgiving and I promise to try and blog more!
