Thanksgiving wasn't painfully busy as it usually is in years past. We decided this year to just spend it with Karee's family and then next year we will spend it with my family. It was so nice not to have to rush down to Cincinnati just to rush back up here. The kids got naps, we got our Christmas decorations out, etc.
The Friday before, Jack went to Mike's for the weekend. Jack wanted to make sure that I didn't forget to feed everyone. He told me that I had 2 choices, to feed Kara & Grant. Then choice 3 was to feed Holly, choice 4 was to feed Libby and choice 5 was to shut Kara & Grant's doors at night. Without Jack reminding me, the rest of the family would not eat ;)
After dinner is usually a crazy time in our house. The dogs always play tug with their rope toy which is loud because they growl and bark. The kids are usually playing and that is loud. I don't realize how crazy it is until someone else is here. And you are trying to talk and you can't between the kids, the dogs, the tv blaring...to us this is all normal. To someone with no animals or kids, I am sure it seems like a mad house. I dont mind that kind of chaos as long as everyone is happy! We have some pretty cute and smart kids which makes us very thankful around here.
