Thankful

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday of the year. I love everything about it, being with family, the food, the very premise of setting aside a day to thank God for His abundant provision and blessing...so much to be thankful for this year, and every year!!

Josh's brother Kevin and his family came up from Dawsonville, GA to spend Thanksgiving with us at our house. It was such a joy to have them here! We had a blast...like a 4-day long pajama party :)

Teri Lynn and I cooked it up Thanksgiving morning. Here's the finished product :)

Cousins!! Most of them anyway...Hudson was already camped out in his chair waiting to eat and didn't want to get out just to have his picture taken. That boy is serious about his food :)

Fixing plates

Working off the meal with a little Wii dancing...

Seriously. Just like one big slumber party. LOVE IT!!

Bailey and her new friend Carly :) Awww...Dogs are the best.

Go-karts!! Who knew places like that participated in Black Friday sales?! The local place by us was having a sale where you could ride and play all you wanted for $10! So Josh and Kevin took Cullen, Campbell and Kate down for the afternoon while Teri Lynn and I took the littles shopping :)

Kevin and Campbell are in the bottom right corner in car #27, and Josh and Kate are right behind them.

Followed up go-karts with a little putt-putt. Kate thought she was SO BIG getting to go with the older boys!!

Being silly with Daddy

Kate and Carly. She loved the fact that she could carry her around like one of her baby dolls :) I'm surprised Carly didn't wind up with a dress on at some point!

Brothers :)

Cousins :) (Only missing Kecia's two and it would be a complete picture of all of them!)

We had such a great time visiting with the Dawsonville crew...Kate went to bed tonight asking if they could come back tomorrow :) Thankfully, we'll be heading home to GA in less than a month to try and soak up as much of our family time as we can!! So thankful!!
