Thanksgiving in Brindleton (Day 40)

As morning rises over Brindleton Bay, the Benali-Armstrong family are waking up to a brand new day, the first in their new home.
Salim is first up and jumps in the shower



Leia is up soon after and sits down to read a book. I totally forgot that it’s Thanksgiving today, so they both have the day off!



Salim whips up some French Toast for breakfast, being very gourmet with those fire tricks!



And the family sit down together for a Thanksgiving breakfast.



After breakfast, while Kate tidies up, and Leia gets dressed for the day



And practices her violin



Meanwhile downstairs in the kitchen, Kate is getting to work on the Thanksgiving dinner



Upstairs, Salim is potty training his son



And the two of them play and bond for a while



With the dinner almost ready, Kate gets started on a little more of her newest book



Leia is having a great day in her new house, playing with her doll



And petting a local stray cat outside of the house



Liberty and her family arrive soon after to spend Thanksgiving with the Benali-Armstrongs.



Kate has set up a little play pen in the dining room for the kids to play in while they eat



And it’s time to eat!



The meal goes down a treat and the families bond and chat for a while



Before moving into the living room for drinks and TV
Kate cracks open the wine



And the families watch some TV



Before Kate makes a toast….



To family



And friends



And with that it’s time to call it to night



As the families bid each other goodbye



And it’s time for bed



For the whole family



Ready for another day



What will happen next? Will Kate finally finish her book? Will Leia achieve a B-Grade at school? Will the couple discuss having another baby? (I'm watching their thought and speech bubbles extra carefully the next few days to decide what they want to do!)



Find out next time!
