Thanksgiving in Boise

This year we had Thanksgiving in Boise with the Borups-- the second I've ever been to.  It was really nice.  It was good to spend some time with Michael's family and nice to have a change and have things a little quieter and calmer for the most part for a little bit.  

The guys spent most of the time out in Keith's shop building Christmas gifts and stuff-- Michael made a dress up box for Evie, and Andrew got Grandpa to help him make a dollhouse for her too (it was his idea and everything-- sweetie brother!  Andrew started it on his own but when Grandpa found out what he was doing he couldn't resist jumping in and helping him make a nice one.  Andrew got to pick the paint and do most of the painting on it.).  

Truman had fun- he learned a new word: "Pie!" Truman loves chocolate pie, but he'll eat just about any kind he can get his hands on.  I think he ate as much as I did on our friday pie night.  Truman is actually talking like crazy lately, which was fun for everyone to hear.  He has even learned to sing "Happy Birthday."  What a cutie!  

One more thing to be thankful for: We're working on negotiations for selling our house right now.  Hooray!  Hopefully we'll have that baby all closed up by the end of the year.
