We celebrated Thanksgiving with David's family at the Sanders House in Beatrice.
Eileen LOVED her cousin Merytt from North Carolina.
She had fun showing off for Merytt, Aunt Lisa, and Deda.
After lunch and playing at the Sanders House, we went over to Mumsie and Daddy Dave's. Eileen got into the crib made by Granddaddy Don. She's a little big for it now:
Here she is in the crib at 1 month old:
We took a picture of the four generations.

And Eileen played in the rocking chair:
And ate turkey & dressing leftovers.
On Friday, David and I reorganized Finklea's store. Eileen came to
help supervise.

A picture from Friday night, just for fun. Eileen took off her sock with such force that she fell over:
And then she reclined in her chair to rest.
She danced to the music from Charlie Brown until she fell asleep-
On Saturday morning, Eileen was bright-eyed and ready to go finish the reorganization/cleaning at Finklea's.
She hammed it up for Mommy's camera:
And pranced around in her tutu-
The tutu is from Uncle Hines & Aunt Lisa for Eileen's birthday. I thought she was too little to want to dress up.
Boy was I wrong! She is constantly bringing the tutu to David and me to put on her... and then she delicately prances around like a ballerina.

| Watching Eileen dance in her tutu was lots more fun than watching the Iron Bowl. |

On Sunday (the first Sunday of Advent- YAY!), we got dressed up to go to church. It was finally time for Eileen to wear her Christmas dresses:

After church, we went to Chichi & Deda's for lunch.
Eileen and David played with Chichi's giant blocks. Mostly, David built towers while Eileen knocked them over.
Eileen showed off her favorite word, "CHEESE", during lunch.
Sunday evening, Eileen played in the tent that Aunt Amy gave her.

We had a great Thanksgiving break- full of fun! Eileen really enjoyed having her Daddy home for four days... she is going to LOVE Christmas break.
