Our Thanksgiving

There are so many things to be thankful for this year. My wonderful man who would give the world to Lilly and I if he could and who loves fully and wholly. For our wonderful daughter who has blessed us beyond anything we could ever imagine. For our beautiful home. And for the many blessing God has bestowed upon us this past year. Thank you God!
Lilly had a pretty good first thanksgiving. At least it started out good. She and daddy watched football and some movies and she took alot of little naps. Towards the middle of the day though she broke down and just started crying and crying and didn't want to nap. This happened a week and a half ago so i was fully prepared to take on this fit. But because of her crankiness I wasn't able to take any pictures of her first Thanksgiving...sorry lilly you brought that on yourself... maybe next year. But Ziff and I thoroughly enjoyed our Thanksgiving. I cooked my first turkey which turned out very good (thanks to a few calls to my helpful in-laws and one to my brother the day before) and it was quite entertaining according to Ziff. And i made all kinds of other yummy foods. SO basically spent the morning in the kitchen. After dinner we put out our tree and the outside lights although we are yet to put the ordanents on the tree. And then spent the next 3 hours or so with Lilly trying to console her and finally got her to sleep and in her bed at 9:30 (which is 2 hours past her bedtime). But we both agreed at the end of the day it was by far the best thanksgiving wither one of us had ever had.
