Happy Thanksgiving

Thursday, NOVEMBER 27, 2008

Happy Thanksgiving! It was a Vollmer Family first. We decided not to travel home to Alabama this year for Thanksgiving. Both of our mom's have had health issues, so we didn't want to impose our chaos on them. So I decided to cook the traditional meal (read way too much food). We invited our friends Noel and Shristie who are from India for lunch and also invited Ingrid (Ben's Nanny)(and my saving grace) to eat with us. We had such a nice time together! Ben sat at the table with us in his high chair. He had sweet potatos (Gerber) but I did give him just a taste of my sweet potato casserole. It had just a little thicker consistancy. He seemed to really like it. We have decided he is about to outgrow his "#1" foods and we will be moving to "#2" foods the next time I go to the grocery store.

Overall we had a lovely day. I'm not including a picture here because somehow Michael erased all our Thanksgiving day pictures from his cell phone. We will try to get some that our friends took. If we do, I'll try to come back and post one here.

I can't believe November is all most over! Where did the month go? I'll try to do a better job of updating this blog for December.
