Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving break!
We started out Tuesday and headed for an overnight stay in Oklahoma City. We went to visit some dear friends, and though it was quick, we loved our time there, and of course the kids loved staying in a hotel. I think we could pick a hotel in Mt. Pleasant and stay there and they would think we had gone on a huge trip! Just a reminder of the simplicity of a child. We don't have to stand on our heads all the time, sometimes the simple things are just a good!

Then on Wednesday we headed to Dallas. This was the year to be with my side of the family on Thanksgiving so it was nice to have everyone there. We stayed with my sister and her family this time and the kids took turns going to Gram and Papa's for sleepovers at night. Emorie actually stayed there every night and was happy as could be! She has quickly become her Papa's girl. Thursday, of course, we all got together and stuffed ourselves silly! Then Friday and Saturday there was playing, shopping, and just hanging out!


Elijah's first Thanksgiving!I hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful and you found, as I did, that you have some much to be thankful for you can't even begin to make a list. Thank you God for all the blessings in life!
