Happy Thanksgiving 2009!

Well Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful day filled with family, fun, and lots of food! I know I did! I started the day having breakfast with Avery. We had some delcious kolaches that Popo Vogt brought from La Grange. All I could tell him was "Yummmmmm!" Then it was off to the Turkey Trot where Mom, Dad, Uncle Chris and Aunt Rachel ran and pushed Avery and me in the stroller. That was lots of fun. We got to run around the capitol and we saw lots of people wearing turkeys on their heads! After the race, we ran into Aunt Katie and her sister Mollie and I got to meet Rick Perry, the governor of Texas (he is an Aggie like we are!) After the race, we had brunch at Threadgills with Popo and Uncle John. Then it was time for home and a nap. But when I woke up I got into my Aggie gear and got ready for turkey and football. Avery and I spent most of the day playing with toys and roaming around outside. (Dax doesn't really get into our girly activities just yet, but we are working on him!) Then it was time for the turkey. Avery, Dax, and I even got our very own "kids' table". The only food I really got into was the dressing and the cranberry sauce. But that was until the pumpkin pie came out.....Dad is known around this place for the pumpkin pie that he makes and I can see why! He made Avery, Dax, and me our very own mini pies and I polished mine off! So after dinner it was time for the Aggie game and I was ready! Soon after the game started, Katie stopped by to visit. I don't know what it is about Katie that gets me so excited, but I sat right down and showed her how I could count to 10....(with a few glitches. I skip 1 and 5, but other than that, I've got it!) And then we would all scream really loud! So after all the fun with Aunt Katie, I was pooped and finally had to go to bed (even though Mom and Dad let me stay up until 9:30 - almost 2 hours past my bedtime!!) I hear my poor Aggies ended up losing to those stinkin' Longhorns which really bums me out. That is the only thing that kept this from being the perfect Thankgiving!
