Marla and the family prepped their house to host the first ever Fakesgiving.
It didn't feel like Fakesgiving, as multiple people commented on, it felt like the real deal.
Fakesgiving was a result of Marla and I loving Thanksgiving and cooking Thanksgiving food, but me having a due date so close to Thanksgiving.
Eric and I enjoyed driving to Temecula with no traffic... a definite plus to Fakesgiving.
The girls even decorated gingerbread houses, with perfectly good Halloween candy. Nerds, snickers, Sunkist fruit gems... everyone found favorite candy to stare at in disbelieve that it was sacrificed...
Everyone loves Katniss!
Elle helped A LOT this year.
Eric's family was more than happy to celebrate the holiday with us.
Mmmmmalbec.
Thanksgiving, fakesgiving, schmakesgiving... it will always be my favorite holiday.
There is nothing better than Thanksgiving food and spending time with loved ones.
Here are some other things that we are all grateful for.
The party lasted ten hours!
Everyone was having too much fun to leave.
So much to be grateful for... wow. We too are having a Fakesgiving (on your birthday, Brady). For me, family gathered with great food and much love IS THANKSGIVING... no matter the date.
ReplyDeleteI loved your day with all the trimmings. And what fun that everyone was there.
Dan and Marla's house looks amazing and I love the Grateful Tree. Wow.
