Thanksgiving.....

Hope everyone had a GREAT Thanksgiving.  Here at the Spillman home it was delicious as usual.  Eric  cooked, just about everything (I did the mashed potatoes) we went overboard as usual.  Turkey, Ham, Mashed potatoes, Sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, rolls, 2 kinds of stuffing, cranberry/apple sauce & corn PLUS 2 pumpkin pies.  Needless to say we had a few leftovers, which is nice because for a couple days afterwards there is no cooking.  Omi B, Martin & Bria all joined us again this year so we were able to get a couple of games of marbles in.  It was a great.  Not to much stress because Eric and I have a pretty good system for cooking and getting things together.  This year though, i finally got smart, we all used paper goods instead of real plates (i have REAL china and whatnot, but because of the kids we've opted not to use it, maybe when they are 35, I'll think about it) so paper plates and cups and all of it, no one seemed to mind and it shaved about 1 hour off my clean up, which was nice.  After bedtime and goodbyes, Bria, Eric and I watched a movie while we enjoyed desert and a drink.  Perfect ending. 
I didn't get as many pictures this year, i was to busy eating :-)

For his birthday Aragorn got some bubbles from our family Friend Martin.  It was to cold on Sunday for them to go outside and play with them, so we let them play with them inside.  They had a blast.

Fun at the park

He can spot a Falcon on a cloudy day......

I got these pictures last week around 8am.  I love how he almost poses for me.

The Official Picture.......

This is Aragorn's Official 6 year old birthday picture. 

WOW!!  I can't get over how big he's gotten.  He's getting smarter and smarter, and learning everyday.  He makes it so much fun to be around him, he can take a joke, and dish 'em out.  He's compassionate and loving, caring and very rarely loses his temper.  I have started calling him my gentle giant.  He's almost intimidating in his size for his age, but as gentle as can be. 

He is everything i could ask a 6 yr old to be. 

I love you!!
