Thanksgiving

What a busy Thanksgiving we had, but it was so full of fun and we were so thankful to get to spend at least a little time with almost our entire family!

It all started Tuesday night when we went to Grandma's in hopes of seeing Stephanie and Dan and Emory and Ellie as they arrived in town. A late start put a damper on that plan but we did have a nice dinner with Grandma at least! Wednesday Kenny and Jack took the day off and spent it having lots of fun with the Florida crowd while I worked. Boooo.





Look at how Jack is looking up to his cousin Emory! He couldn't have a sweeter look on his face and I could not choose anyone more perfect for Jack to look up to.







Wednesday evening we had dinner with Grams and Gramps and Granny! Jack loved having different people to read books with.









Thursday we went for a walk down to the lake in the morning. Jack saw lots of squirrels that he had to point out and we even saw a couple of deer!











And then after naptime we went back to Grams and Gramps' for Thanksgiving dinner!











Gramps lifted Jack up over his head over and over and over and Jack could not have smiled or laughed any more. He really smiled and laughed the entire holiday break and was very cooperative. He too loves being surrounded by his family!!





Uncle Aaron took him for a wild horsey ride too which he LOVED!



Friday morning we went to play with Emory and Ellie a little bit more before they headed out of town.









Then Saturday we hit the road to Manassas to visit the rest of the Lion clan. We played outside a bit...



and spotted plenty of airplanes!



Then the Lion boys put their feet up and cheered the Hokies to victory over the Hoos! Yay!!



We are so thankful that we got to see everyone and enjoy all that our amazing life holds. We couldn't be more thankful for our little guy and for each other and all of you. We hope your Thanksgiving was just as full of love as ours was!
