Thanksgiving day

This year mom and dad drove down to Auntie gay's with Nannie and Papa so it was just us for Thanksgiving dinner (us on my side of the family I mean)  about a week before Thanksgiving day I realized that Mom and Dad Chadwick's house was still not put back together from their remolding so Dusty and I invited them over to our house for Thanksgiving dinner.  It was a good dinner.  Mom took care of the turkey for me, and I made homemade rolls and double chocolate mousse cake and an apple pie and I even got to try a new recipe that I've been wanting to try for a while.  The pumpkin pie cheesecake swirl recipe,  It seemed to be a pretty big hit!  It was fun but exhausting!  By the end of the day I had a HUGE migraine but I guess that it just part of being a mom right?

Later that night when Tiffany's boys went to bed (Caden is still on a feeding tube and can't eat any real food and freaks out when anyone else does around him)  she came over and I loaded them up with lots of left overs so she and her hubby could still have their own thanksgiving dinner.   The odd thing was a couple of day after that she stopped by with a thank you note for my MIL for the thanksgiving dinner and never even said thank you to me.  odd don't you think??????  yea I was a bit frustrated with that.  I mean it would be one thing if she had even at any point said thank you to me but she never did.  It's almost like I've done so much for them they just expect it.  Which really bugs me.  Maybe I need to just step back and not offer to help out as much.  There is not a whole lot worse than feeling like people just don't even apperciate you.

I try to tell myself that I've done a good deed and that's all that matters.  Maybe that's something that I need to work on.  Just knowing that I have done something nice and not caring how the end result is just being happy that I have done it. 



Bridgett had a great time running around the whole day and decided that she really really likes COOL WHIP!!!!!!  Why are there no photos of Aaron or anyone else?  Well I don't know!  You'll have to ask Daddy,  I was busy doing dishes and he was on camera duty.  :)
