Izzy's first Thanksgiving was definitely a success. We started out the day by walking the 5K Turkey Trot. We bundled up Izzy a ton to make sure she stayed nice and warm. She fell asleep about halfway through the race, but woke up for her big finish. Art and I love starting Thanksgiving morning with this walk. I never feel as bad about eating a ton after a nice long walk in the morning. After our trot, we went home and got ready for our day of eating. We first went to Nana & Papa's house (Art's grandparents) for an early afternoon meal. They live on a golf course and we spent a good part of the afternoon enjoying the sun out back. After eating we played a hearty game of Bingo. After that is was straight on over to my parents house for dinner. By the end of my mom's great meal, we were stuffed. At both meals, Izzy tried lots of new foods. She ate lots of green beans, cranberries, turkey, mashed potatoes, and yams. She especially liked the pumpkin pie. The day was so wonderful and when we got home, we were beat, but we couldn't stop talking about what a great day it turned out to be!
