A Filling Holiday

Whew! We had a lovely Thanksgiving! We watched the parade and went to Cawkie and Pop's house (John's mom & dad). Drew got the wish bone from the turkey. He's been debating ever since what to wish for. As if 'poof' whatever it is, will just show up automatically.
Drew also has his list for Santa ready. Unfortunately they don't make the things he's requesting. I mentioned that to him and was quickly corrected - "Mommy, the elves can make whatever we want." Yeah, daddy and I better get working!!
I am attaching a slide show of the holiday festivities. We had a dance party - have I ever mentioned these before?? - Wednesday night. This is a Burke tradition. We play different dance music (disco, kids, Auburn band music, etc.) and the kids dance around. Our favorite songs include: "I like to move it move it" (from Madagascar), "Jump in the Line" (Harry Belafonte), "YMCA", "Copacabana" and any Auburn music. Bo participated in his first conga line. It was fun. The boys had a blast.

Sounds like a great "family" day! We missed Brannon on Thursday as he had to work. However, we had his undivided attention on Friday, Saturday AND Sunday. This is the first time since I can't remember that he's had that much time off from work!!

We also have dance parties - although our's are more impromptu during the day when we have music on!
