Best. Thanksgiving. Ever.

This year, we didn't really have anywhere to go for Thanksgiving.  The invitations never seemed to come.  But that's okay because this year was my most favorite Thanksgiving ever!  It was seriously the most relaxing, enjoyable one I've ever had.  The kids were out of school on Wednesday so we headed up to the cabin after Josh got off work.  We ordered a pie from Kneaders (key lime-yum!) so that's where we ate dinner on the way up.  I had a turkey ranch sandwich because I knew it was the only turkey I was getting that weekend.
Thanksgiving morning, we slept in and then lounged around all morning.  Around eleven we headed into Montpelier to get a few supplies that we needed for the chaos that we knew was coming and then came back.
Then we bundled up and headed out to find some Christmas Trees!  It was SO nice because we were the only people on the trails, there was hardly any snow to contend with and we had no expectations.  We just did what we wanted.

We ran into a few moose.  Very fun!

We tried to maim a few trees.

And we threw a few snowballs.

And we saw the most beautiful sights.

After our three(!) hour ride, we came back with one tree and happy faces.
Then it was time for Thanksgiving dinner.  We had...
TACOS!
And they were delishious and more importantly, they only took fifteen minutes to prepare!  Talk about a relaxing Thanksgiving dinner.  We followed dinner up with our yummy pie and then watched a movie with the kids.
A heavenly day.
Best. Thanksgiving. Ever.
