Thanksgiving with my family is generally a pretty low key affair because we don't have any extended family around. But now that we don't see my immediate family as often, it makes the time we do have together extra special. While I took advantage of all the extra hands around to write a big school paper and Christmas shop and go to the movies and consume my annual Chick-fil-A peppermint chocolate milkshake, my boys were busy having their own kind of fun...
I don't know about where you were but at Gramma and Grampa's house it was warm enough to paint almost naked outside on Thanksgiving! Annual tradition in the making perhaps?
My dad bought this light tree several years ago as a project for him and Hubby T, back when they were the only men in the house and needed something to do while we girls did our thing. Now someone else gets even greater joy out of helping to put it together.
Super chef Gramma! (Great picture of you Mom!)
Quality grandfather-grandson time
Quality BFF time!
I felt a little strange being back at our old stomping grounds so soon after moving, but it was definitely worth it to spend time playing again with these precious friends:)
We drove all afternoon to get home and it was all I could do to stop all three of my boys from running into the house and immediately pulling out all the Christmas boxes. Let the Christmas craziness begin!
