Thanksgiving 09

We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving! We spent the week in Waco with my family and got in some much needed R&R. Brad was able to take a majority of the week off and that was a huge treat! Our time with Doc and Mimi included...

lots of cooking! My mother is an incredible cook! She had Landon and Reagan help her prepare the Thanksgiving feast! They loved it!

Reagan helped make the cornbread for the dressing.

They shucked the corn.

They helped (or looked on) as Mimi made stuffed mushrooms for Brad...one of his favorite things!Landon got the rolls ready.

We also spent a lot of time playing UNO with the kids. It's been a long while since I have played a game of UNO, but I have to say it still might be one of my favorite card games.

I give you exhibit A of the R&R I talked about earlier!

These are the three blessings I am most thankful for!

Uncle Kyle and Aunt Alli (who I didn't get a picture of) were able to spend some time with us on Tuesday night before heading to Kyle's parents' house for Thanksgiving. We always love seeing them and missed them the rest of the week!

Doc and Mimi,

Thank you again for such a wonderful week. We are more than thankful for you and for our time there. It was every bit of perfect and we are now so excited to come back at Christmas! We love you!
