Well, it’s the day after Thanksgiving and I still can’t say that I have ever made a turkey.
But I have definitely made a paper bag turkey!
One Charming Party’s creative kid’s table display inspired me this year as we planned to tell our family the gender of Baby #2.
The Happy Hubby helped me make our paper bag turkey – but instead of stuffing it with popcorn, we stuffed it with a balloon the color of our baby’s gender.
Then we took it to our Thanksgiving feast.
I explained to the fam that by carving this turkey – they’d get to know who was in my tummy!
So, we let the nieces and nephew have at it.
I mean, what kids under 12 ever get an opportunity to carve a turkey??
*No knives were used in the carving of our gender reveal turkey. No one was hurt in the process either!*

Our nephew was pretty excited since he has been outnumbered for years.
The Happy Buddy is going to have a little brother!!!
We couldn’t be more thrilled!
I know you all have been praying for a girl for us, and as much as a little princess all covered in glitter and fairy wings would have been so magical – I have had this second boy in my heart for long time and have been praying for him by name for many months!
I am so excited that the Happy Buddy is going to have a little buddy to wrestle with, play in the mud with, and crash cars with.
Now all I need to do is come up with a Blog Name for him!
The Happy Buddy is the Happy Buddy…so what should this little guy’s name be??
Happy Thanksgiving from me and my THREE boys!
