Thanksgiving 2016

With Calvin being only a few weeks old and both grandma's being in town to help with Emmy and Calvin post delivery we were planning on having a quiet Thanksgiving at home just the four of us.
I didn't want to have to do a lot of cooking, so we ordered the Cracker Barrel Thanksgiving dinner and I just made a pumpkin cheesecake, of course!


We woke up Thanksgiving morning to a very sick little Emmy girl.  We didn't realize how sick until she threw up all over me and our bed.  She was very warm and running a fever.  With her not feeling well it gave us all an excuse to pile into bed and watch Christmas movies all day.  No complaining here!!


Sean headed out to pick up our cracker Barrel meal around 2:30 and didn't get home til after 6pm.  It was an absolute nightmare.  The line of cars was wrapped around the cracker barrel and they were having trouble cooking the food fast enough to get the orders out.  Neither of us could believe how awful it was and we both agreed to be sure to schedule our thanksgiving day pick up for first thing in the morning if we ever do it again.  By the time Sean got home we were all so starving and exhausted.  We scarfed down the food and headed straight back to the couch to relax some more. 


Emmy was able to fall asleep finally and it was nice that she could get some relief from being so feverish.  All in all it was a very uneventful day for us.  Holidays are no fun when your sweet little ones aren't feeling well.
