We had a fantastic Thanksgiving Day in CA with most of the Sorensen family (Garrett and Melanie and Amber couldn't come). The feast was delicious and we enjoyed it with Great Uncle Dale and Great Aunt Debbie and their kids as well as Great Grandpa Sorensen. We had turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, cheesy potatoes, sweet potato casserole, corn, stuffing, homemade rolls, green bean casserole, raspberry jello pretzel salad, drink and pies for dessert. Megan LOVED it all. She just ate and ate and ate. We played some football at the park (while the kids played, we ate, we lounged around and we played games. It was a wonderful day. We drove the 4 hours and 15 minutes home today and Megan woke up half way through for about 30 minutes to drink her bottle. Other than that she slept the whole way (all the kids did actually). Ahhh.

Megan is a full blown walking girl now. She still has to watch her balance, but she can walk all through the house....and she does. When she falls down she gets herself back up right in the middle of the room. She leans over and pushes herself up with her hands. Sometimes her balance isn't quite right and she falls back down, but then she just does it again. It is very rare that she will crawl to the couch or chair or something else to pull herself back up. She has been doing it this way since she first started taking multiple steps in a row. It's pretty impressive.

Today is Mega Moo's first birthday. We are so blessed to have a healthy, happy and growing little girl in our family and in our lives. We love her to bits. We had a pretty mellow little party: dinner, gifts and eating banana cream pie. Then she practiced walking some more, and really got going. She got a little puppet dog that barks when you open and close it's mouth (to the tune of "How much is that Doggy in the Window). She was quite fascinated by that.
