Our Thanksgiving

I love holiday dishes.  When it's my time to host holidays I will sure be ready.  I've been taught and shown by the best!



Thanksgiving starts early for the peeps around here.  It's a holiday tradition for all the guys to start at the bar to buy their tickets, which usually starts at about 9am or so.  After that, we all head over to Deb's and start with appetizers.  Both of our families are under one roof for the holidays and I'm so very thankful for that.
My little turkey givin' Den some love...


The drums are always a favorite for the kids...Believe me when I say they all know how to rock out...

The weather was nice enough (especially for this time of year) so the kids enjoyed being outside.  We are always thankful when we have our cousins to play with...


Our buddy Brayden stopped by for a little bit and joined in on the fun...

Meg, Brayden, and Den..............We keep telling them it's time for another;)




Uncle Just was not home this year, but we were thankful that Ellary was able to join us...


What do I even say about this?

And let me tell you...we pulled out Dee Dee's chest of dress up clothes...the kids played dress up in the woods...how fun is that?!  We were entertained with Batman, Dorothy, and a Princess (Jayne LOVES princesses - she brings her high heels with her wherever she goes:)

Greyson loves to dress up too...I've been told many many stories about his daddy loving this too...Most of the pictures of Nate as a lil' guy he's dressed up in some type of costume-ha!

Sailor was so good all day and she didn't nap....bless her little heart...

playing with mommy's phone...

And right before we sat down to eat Deb read to us...it was a really good article she found about what's really important during the holiday season...and that it's okay if the 'turkey catches fire' or if the 'potatoes are lumpy' - all that matters is that we are all together...SO TRUE!

It was a feast!  Everything is made from scratch where we come from;)

And check out our newest little turkey...Guiliana Grace...

And now we are onto some serious/hard core Christmas decorating around here...
Bring on the Christmas Lights:)
