Rilyn decided she wanted us to do a family thanksgiving skit this year. So she and Ella got the props and costumes ready and Julie added her creative SNL twist and we performed it for our family yesterday.
Make sure to stick it out until the end, my favorite part is Rilyn’s nervous anticipation before the ‘grand finale’.

Go Cowboys! Go Aggies!
We went to South Shore park on Lake Bastrop for Thanksgiving with James’ parents. What a beautiful hideaway-and only 30 minutes away from us! The girls had so much fun with Oma’s canoes! (Rilyn actually got to spend the night in the cabin with her Oma and Papaw last night.) We had a Thanksgiving feast, only complete with the Cowboys game. This, of course, was courtesy of James bringing the TV into the great outdoors where he carefully placed it at the head of table, (where only Tony Romo is fit to sit.) Thankfully the Cowboys won-(we won’t mention our other team that played yesterday and royally stunk up their whole season.
Aunt Mandy made the girls Indian costumes the night before.

Who doesn’t love Charlie Brown holiday specials?? I thought we just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to have a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving with our community group kiddos! So, just like the cartoon, their plate looked like this:
