Happy Sickgiving!

All of the Smiths were in town for Thanksgiving. There are now 10 adults and 10 children, ages 10 to 8 months in our little clan. So, when I knew all 20 of us would be at my house for supper starting Monday night and for various meals throughout the week, including Thanksgiving, I decided this would be a good week to come down with a horrible case of strep, requiring 2 visits to the ER. Needless to say, we did a little improvising, moved people around so no one was staying at our house for a few days, and everyone pitched in in various ways, and we still had a great week together! Our family is very blessed and we have much to be thankful for.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I was very thankful for the barf bag!

One of my favorite parts of having everyone together, is watching the 10 cousins!
