4th Year Anniversary & Thanksgiving

Well our 4th year anniversary was on Thanksgiving Day this year. Lance was so sweet. He made some pumpkin pecan pancakes (William Sonoma mix) which were so delish! We had to put the rest of our celebrating on hold due to Thanksgiving. I brought a few side dishes over to my parents house for an early dinner/lunch at 1pm. My mom is such the chef. Her food is always phenomenal and the presentation is perfect. We were very punctual this year which was a big accomplishment! We had a lot of fun hanging out with them and then we went over to Lance's parents house at 5:30 for their dinner. I brought soup and a pumpkin pie. As a family tradition, Lance's mother likes to make all of the food herself and let everyone else just relax. It is so sweet of her, but its just so hard to let her do everything for everyone else. I think she deserves a break since she has been cooking for several decades now! I'm trying to convince her to let everyone else bring the food so she can relax and enjoy Thanksgiving. Anyways food was delicious at their house too, as always.

The best part of Thanksgiving is just sitting around and talking after the feast. I love family time. It's so funny how we are so comfortable at our own family's house. Lance teases everyone non-stop when he's at his house. He serenaded his brother with a romantic ballad while on one knee. He cuddled hilariously too close with his father, crushing his imaginary comfort zone. He gave his sister a piece of cake which was half of the cake for her piece (she's tiny, so its ok) and hid brownies in his brothers room. He is loads of fun. At my parents house I just tap danced for Gavin like the penguin on the movie Happy Feet. Lance and Gavin thought that was pretty funny.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
