I'm Thankful for Family Dinners

Today I'm thankful for Family Dinners. Sometimes they are filled with laughter and endless giggling.  Sometimes they are filled with pouting at being asked to eat disgusting fruit or vegetables. Sometimes we don't let the children leave the table when they are done eating because it's "family time".

Sometimes everyone is laughing at the one who is crying like tonight when Luke shook the barbecue sauce bottle so hard that he ended up with nice big plop of it in his hair. "Family Time" was interrupted by a quick trip to the tub.

Family Dinners are always filled with delicious food, well almost always. Sometimes I make something that turns out disgusting. Family Dinners are even better when Doug cooks (every Sunday). A couple of weeks ago Doug cooked up a Mac n' Cheese taste test. It was the Jalepeno flavored Kraft that took the win (the one in the middle)

Our dinner table is one short tonight. Doug is in Atlanta taking a little Dad vacation.  He's actually at the Atlanta Falcons Vs Saints game right now.  Here is his view from the 5th row on the 40th yard line.

I'm holding down the fort here this weekend.  It's a tough job but someone's got to do it. :)
Over and out!
