Thanksgiving in California..

Happy Thanksgiving to you, 

I hope you all enjoyed the holiday, and spend a lot of time with your families, and just enjoyed the time you had.. 

We had a pretty good day, we woke up around 9:00am I think, me and the babies laid around in bed watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade (watching that is something I have done for years growing up) every single year I talk about how I would LOVE to spend Thanksgivingng in New York watching the parade... One day I will just need to save up for that.. 😜

I also usually ALWAYS watch the National Dog show too but having kids and they are wanting the tv I pick my battles wisely so cartoons it was. 

Carl Smith, cooked our whole meal for us today this was the first year since I have been cooking that I didn't have to cook anything it was a bit odd not being inside the kitchen cooking but it was ok, I kept my children out of his way as much as possible.. 

I even had the chance to get Braxton to nap around 2:00pm and DannieLynn also went and crashed with mom, so we all got some naps in and then when we woke up the food was almost all done. 

Carl is an amazing cook, we had some good ole food today.. 

Turkey, mashed taters, gravy, dressing, green beans and corn, roll, green bean casserole... 

Everything was very good and Carl did a great job.. 

It was even warm enough I enjoyed my food out by the pool this evening it was nice and quiet I was able to just sit down eat and then go back inside the house.. A few of us ate out side today it was a nice and pretty day not to hot or to cold.. 

After dinner and everything was put away, it was time for mom, Jeffrey, Carl and Steven leave to go shopping lol.. Steven has to work tonight he thought he had to work this morning he went in from 7:00am until 9:00am then his boss was like umm your suppose to work tonight so he had to come home and then go back in tonight from 8:00pm until 1:00am but it's all good it's a job and will help us with Christmas and everything else... 😄 

By far this was a very good Thanksgiving, it was a little different being in California and not North Carolina but it was still good.. We still enjoyed the day and had a good meal.. Also spent the day with people we love!! 

The kids have been playing and watching cartoons, while I cleaned up the dishes, now the night is winding down and we will be heading on to bed soon.. We put up the Christmas tree last night so that's something we don't have to do tomorrow 😄 

We can just relax and enjoy the rest of our holiday and then it's back to school on Monday for just one week and then it's out for Christmas time!! 

Mom is taking her last GED test on December 4th, it's her math test we are praying and crossing out bodies that she passes this test and then she will be all done with school, I am so very proud of her! 

I can't wait for her to be done with this high school stuff and be able to get a job where she doesn't have to over work her self and she can enjoy it.. 😜😃 

Well guys I done want to bored you up and I'm getting a bit tired so this is all for now I hope you enjoyed and be looking for more post coming soon!! 😄 😄 

For now Good Night Readers!!! 

-Danielle (Happy Turkey Day) 😄
