A happy Thanksgiving

Our celebrations last week started on Monday. Since Steve's birthday fell on Thanksgiving Day, I felt it was only fair that we celebrated early. So I made Steve's favorite meal (lasagna) and bought his favorite dessert (cheesecake) and we celebrated his birthday a few days early. Molly and the kids even helped me decorate with balloons and streamers.


On Thanksgiving morning we took it easy and enjoyed the Macy's parade on TV. This has become a holiday tradition with Molly, and Garret & Paige seemed to enjoy it as much as she does! Here they are cuddling on the couch together in their jammies. Could they be any cuter?


Then after naps, we were off to Aunt Nancy's house. I didn't get many pictures from our Thanksgiving feast because it was wall to wall people. There were probably close to 30 people there. The kids had so much fun playing with their cousins. Garrett made a new friend in his cousin Peyton's girlfriend, Kelly. He was glue to her all night.


Paige on the other hand was glued to anyone with a plate full of dessert. A girl after my own heart!


All in all, it was a fabulous weekend. We have so much to be thankful for. We've had a rough year, but it was so awesome to remember all the ways God has blessed us. Family. Friends. A roof over our head and food on our table. And all of you out there reading this who share in our life... we're thankful for you too!
