Thanksgiving Holiday

We had a quiet Thanksgiving this year with our little family and Grandma Jody. It was an all day pj day filled with food and too much football. We had all the good food anybody could ask for and after we were all done it looked as though nobody had eaten yet. Lucky for us, plenty of left overs.
The kids ready to eat and excited to use real plates and fancy glasses. Poor Taryn slept through the whole dinner.
Man of the house taking charge.
And here is what he did the rest of the day.
Friday in Idaho.
We spent the day in Idaho with my family. We had lunch, made kits for a local shelter, and played all day.
All done with ours.
Grandma Jody taking care of Taryn.
All the kids/helpers all done with the kits.
On to gingerbread houses. A Decker tradition now passed on to our kids. The kids grabbed a buddy and some candy and went to work. Dayton and Gracy.
Camrie and Carson.
Grandma trying to help Camrie, but poor Grandma kept getting yelled at that she was doing it wrong.
Dayton letting Grandma help him.
He thought it was pretty neat having both Grandmas with him at the same time.
Papa and Nana Decker with the kids.
Arts and Crafts.
Nana came prepared with coloring, painting, cutting, and stickers.
Carson keeping a close eye on Taryn.
While the little kids colored the big kids played a few games of flicker ball.
Time for Christmas.
Kyle putting up the tree with some helpers.
Time to decorate.
Taryn checking things out, chewing on anything she can get her hands on. We hope those teeth come in soon.
Still decorating. The kids had to put every last one on.
And here is our angle on the top.
