Thursday morning was a busy one for our little chef, who was involved in just about every step of preparing our big meal. (Before we all know it, he'll be the one doing ALL of the cooking.)
He took a temporary break to watch the parade with me. There were a few time outs along the way for not listening (and unexpectedly dumping a handful of pepper into a pan!?!), but the enthusiasm was there. Does that count?
Turkey time.
Dinner was full of laughs, especially when Nico broke out singing Sweet Caroline at the table. And yes, we all then chimed in!
One of the best meals of the year.
Nico is so fortunate to have all of his grandparents around and so active in his life!
Working off their Thanksgiving meals.
And why do we only make pumpkin pie once a year?
As the night was winding down, it didn't take too long before he came out in full football attire asking to be presented. He ran around the room and gave us high fives while we cheered.
"...And now... presenting... for the Texas Longhorns... number 23... from Austin Texas... Nico Biagini!..."
The cheering apparently wasn't enough, and it was time to progress to tunnel formation.
Pretty hilarious. He kept us well entertained and belly laughing a few times! I love this kid.
I was determined to be in a few of the pictures to provide proof that I do exist.
Such a great day!
The Biagini's stayed for another day or so, and we made our way out to Fredericksburg on Friday! We showed them our favorite winery, Hilmy, and stopped at a second one before making our way to Main St. It was a nice time until the weather had other ideas. The temperature dropped 30-40 degrees along with rain! We ate at Fredericksburg Brewery and decided to get the heck outta there.
Now bring on the Christmas season!....
