Happy Birthday, You're Not Special

Just kidding. I AM special.

I just like that NOFX song.

One more year of my 20s and I have a feeling it's going to be the best one yet!

Turkey For Me And Turkey For You...Let's Eat The Turkey In My Big Brown Shoe...

{A post by The Boy}

Thanksgiving was awesome! We had SO much fun and saw so many people we love!
My grandmas both cooked INCREDIBLE meals. 

Seriously. The food was amazing.
They put that smug skank, Martha Stewart, to shame.

We started the day at Lunchgiving with the grandparents Supermacy...

The kids table!

My buddy, TJ and me

Grandpa and Little W. Prolly talking about bald guy stuff.

Me and Cat...

Cat and Gramps...

We had SO much fun!

 Then we came home, put on our stretchy pants and slipped quietly into food induced comas. 

 When we regained consciousness it was time to go to Gran and Papas house!

First item of business: Play dinosaur cowboy while wearing the bowl helmet.

With that out of the way, I could practice some photography.
I took this photo all by myself, thankyouverymuch.

PHOTO BOMB!

 ...my uncles contribution to the meal was sparkling cider in liquor store hobo bags.

Excellent.

...pie with Grandma...

 And to finish up an awesome day: More of the cowboy dinosaur bowl helmet game....

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas...

Today we decorated the tree...

 ...we hung up the stockings...

 ...we set up the nativity scene...

{This is the first year The Boy is old enough to wrap his mind around the event of Christ's birth, so we had a nice long talk about it. He still refers to Mary as "the princess" when he re-tells the story...but I think he gets the general idea.}

...And the boy had the VERY important job of placing the star at the top of the tree. He has been looking forward to this for WEEKS.

He smiled SO big and took his duty very seriously.
With great star comes great responsibility.
