Warning: no pictures in this post, but it still may be entertaining.
#10 A picture of all my aunts, uncles, cousins and siblings laying on scooters and trying to get under a short hurdle in a family race.
#9- The 1000 piece puzzle, 2-500 piece puzzles, 3- 300 piece puzzles, and 2 100 piece puzzles completed (That is 3100 pieces minus the 2 missing pieces)
#8 Our Christmas day . . . amazing food, lots of presents, wrapping paper galore (Jackson in heaven).
#7 Jackson tripping over a 6 month old baby- me jumping to catch him and spilling orange tang all over my mother-in-laws newly cleaned carpet . . . I didn't even apologize about Jackson smashing the baby . . .
#6 Jackson methodically covering the kitchen floor with newspapers.
#5 Dave got into an 'argument' with Jackson. It went like this:
J: MEH! (more)
D: No!
J: Meh!
D: No!
J: Meh!
D: No!
J: Meh!
D: No!
J: NO! (Shaking his head) No-no . . . MEH!
Guess who won?
#4 Dave scoring the winning basket on the 'old man's team' at my family party (granted he is a 'few' inches taller than everyone else in my family)
#3. Jackson's first experience with red marker
#1. Dave and I decided to try our hand at cooking a full turkey. Unfortunately, we did it with no 'adult supervison'. After digging around to find the entrails and whatever other grossness was inside, we attempted to put the turkey in the oven bag (which I had been coached on by my mom). I put some flour in the bag and then Dave tried to slip it in . . .and SLIP it did! The bag didn't even slow the turkey down on it's way down both of our legs and across the kitchen floor. Dave and I were covered in flour and turkey slime. My pants had a hole in the them, and the turkey ran away with the spoon. Just kidding, after taming the turkey (twist tying BOTH ends of the bag) we cooked and enjoyed the turkey. I think we are sticking with Ham . . . precooked . . . . from now on.

I don't know what mom was thinking when she bought that shirt and beanie. And in my defense I did try it on. The shirt was a cute style, I'll give mom that, but it was leopard and zebra print! Weird! And the beanie was just hideous.
I cant believe someone else still drinks tang. also I love your story on cooking a turkey.
I'm sure my 6 month old will never be the same--except that's not the first time he's fallen on her :) And the turkey would have required a video, not a picture. We do need to get better at taking pictures of things.
