Thanksgiving

I know we're just a few minutes away from Christmas, but I'm going to sneak Thanksgiving in!!  It was another wonderful Thanksgiving, with a few twists to the normal pattern. It was 4.5 days off of work jam-packed with lots of fun and so many reminders of all that we have to be thankful for... 

The O'Donnells came to our house for dinner on Wednesday night and I took exactly one picture.  It was so sweet seeing Ellie reading to the boys. We had such a great time catching up, cooking, eating and playing. 



The next morning, since we weren't all going to be together for Thanksgiving dinner, Stephanie had a great idea to have a Thanksgiving breakfast and watch the parade.  It was a gorgeous day and Grandma had raked up a huge pile of leaves for the kids to play in and we had a delicious breakfast to boot!

After all of that fun and a nap, we headed to Uncle Harold and Judy's for Thanksgiving Dinner.  It's usually at Grams and Gramps', but since Uncle Harold and Judy were going to be in FL for Christmas, and they usually host Christmas Eve, we switched things up and had Thanksgiving in their lovely home.













The next day it was time for the 2nd Annual Neighborhood Scavenger Hunt.  This year we had a new neighborhood so the list was a bit different.  But it was just as fun!  

















I'm not sure that my heart could be any more full.  Life is so very good and I am so very thankful. Thanks to all who made it a great Thanksgiving and sure hope you all had a fantastic one as well!
