We had a beautiful Thanksgiving, one to remind us to be thankful everyday all year long!
My husband has a BIG family...this was our table and it did not contain all of his family as some live away...and some were other places!
I love this picture of Nate and his Grammie...this was the first year Nate has been able to sit at the BIG table 9yes there is a small table with little ones too) . He and his cousin Katelyn were happy to sit at the big peoples table for the first time!
I made cookies for the party...sugar cookies with frosting. They didn't come out how I wanted them too (I used a leaf cookie cutter to start out, but they just grew to a blob as they cooked). Nate encouraged me to cook some with just a circle shape and so I did. I still didn't want to bring them, but both Lauren and Nate said nobody will care...they taste good!
While the grown-ups were still eating, one of the kids asked if they could have a cookie and someone said yes, and then we didn't think anything more about it. At some point someone stood up from the table and this is what they saw:
Nate and Katelyn went for a ride on Ralph and Joette's golf cart after dinner...it amazes me that it doesn't matter it only goes 1 mile an hour (or so) and they still love driving it around!
While my sister in law Suzanne and I did dishes and chatted...Scott and little Jake were caught reading a book and resting!
It is hard to believe Thanksgiving has come and gone and Christmas is almost here!
Have a great rest of your weekend and travel safe for those who travel during the holiday!
Dancingly, Denise
