The Day Before Thanksgiving

On the day before Thanksgiving the kids always have a half day.  I spend all morning making rolls, pies, and layered rainbow jello.  After the kids get home we go out to a movie and then dinner.  It's a fun tradition that the kids look forward too.  This year we saw Wreck It Ralph and everyone loved it except for Celeste.  But, to be fair, she decided she didn't want to watch before it even started.  She doesn't really like movie theaters - they are probably a close second to the chapel.  Any room where you have to sit still in a seat doesn't really rank very high with our little wiggle worm.  During one of my turns with her we ended up out in the hallway and she kept saying 'go' and pulling toward the exit.  She was done! Everyone else really enjoyed the movie.  After the movie we took the kids to the play place at the mall so they could get out some wiggles and we could kill some time until dinner!  It was crazy to see everyone getting ready for Black Friday (which apparently starts on Thursday now).
