____giving

The past week had been full of variations on the traditional Turkey Day, including Frysgiving, Friendsgiving, and the actual Thanksgiving meal itself. Basically, we've been eating nonstop for the past week - I am afraid to get on the scale.

We started out with Frysgiving at our friend's place - it involved deep frying a turkey, though we didn't stay long enough to sample any of it. Though Maya did have fun hanging out there before naptime:

The next day we continued the eating at Friendsgiving with another group of friends. A huge feast was served, with lots of delicious food. We had turkey, tofurkey, cranberry sauce, biscuits, cornbread, stuffing, squash, mashed potatoes, and more:

The kids had lots of fun playing together too, and paused briefly for a photo:

After all this eating, we headed up to Canada to visit our good friends and cook yet another Thanksgiving meal. Again, there was quite a spread of food, including turkey, mashed potatotes, dressing, brussels sprouts, cranberry relish, green beans, and mac n cheese:

 

 

Maya had lots of fun meeting new friends and playing with cool toys:

All in all, a great way to wrap up November! Oh and Maya learned a new word as well:
