Turkey Day fun!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!! I am SO thankful that I got to spend an amazing time with my family. Especially my mom who is currently fighting cancer.
We really had a blast!! She even cooked the whole meal!! and made extra pie for me to take home!
One, as expected, ate everything on his plate... Dennis on the other hand wanted a little chicken and bad salt as he calls it... and whipped cream ;)
Dennis and Papa played football after dinner and that was a blast for all!

Jail? Stealing? oh the 10 Commandments!

So Dennis started taking things.. putting things in his pocket that did not belong to him.. great huh? Clepto at 3.. SO we had to have a talk with him.. Explained that you can't take things that do not belong to you.. how would you like it if someone took your things ect...
Well that worked for a day... THEN his teacher pulls the Mister aside...
Says that he was putting things in his pocket multiple times today... WONDERFUL...
SO We have another talk with him- tell him he will lose his Ninja turtle costume and sword.. (he even likes to sleep in it sometimes) well that sorta worked but I had to lay it on him.. bring out the big guns... yep..GOD/ Jesus...
I grabbed the bible and opened to the 10 commandments and we read them... (course the adultery one was hard to explain to a 3 yr old)
SO he comes up with a plan... every commandment he follows every day he gets a penny lol... 10 pennies a day...
He gets off easy due to the fact he can't go committing adultery...
SO we are actually learning them.. I thought hey this works!
He can repeat many of them to me now... AND I can say "that's not honoring your mother and father... you're going to lose a penny..." yes.. it works...

Love this picture

I am messing around at work with a paint program... totally love this shot of the littles at my Grandparents grave...
I just love how innocent this picture seems to me... I plan on getting this framed for my dad for Christmas... my boys with his parents...
