Because Thomas and I can only handle so much running around during the holidays, we started our own Thanksgiving tradition last year: Cracker Barrel. All I have to say is YUM. It is way better than any meal we could fix ourselves, and it's about 10 times easier! Apparently we aren't the only ones who have figured this out as there was a 45 minute wait when we got there at 1:30 for lunch! But it was well worth the wait. Hudson had a blast checking out everything in the shopping area. He especially liked the electronic sock monkey toy in a crate on the floor - it just rolled around laughing hysterically. Of course Hudson thought this was hilarious! He also enjoyed entertaining all the other non-cooking people.

Once we were seated, our drinks were in front of us instantly and food followed just a couple of minutes later. Hudson ate a jar of sweet potatoes and he got to try cranberry sauce and whipped cream! The cranberry sauce wasn't exactly his favorite, but that whipped cream hit the spot! He was perfect the whole time we were there, and fell asleep as soon as we got back in the truck.

Thomas got all of our Christmas stuff out the day after Thanksgiving. When Hudson was napping, we put the tree up. It sure seemed a lot easier to decorate the tree this year and I couldn't figure out why. Then it hit me - I was 3-4 months pregnant at this time last year! I sure don't miss that!
