Happy Thanksgiving!

I am so Thankful for my awesome hubby!!
Spencer's First Turkey Day! He even ate sweet potatoes and turkey baby food for lunch! :)
We were all so thankful for such a yummy dinner!!

I am so thankful for these little boys!

Logan LOVES his little bubba......

And, Spencer adores his big bro!

Grammy and Papa Don have a pond behind their house and Logan got to go and feed the duck's and "pretend" to fish with a stick. :) I am so thankful for such fun family times together!

Having lots of fun with all the new toys at Papa Don and Grammy's house!

Logan's favorite part of the day was playing with the dog's in the backyard.

Spencer wanted to play too!

It makes Spencer so happy to be outside! Look at those dimples!

This year we celebrated Thanksgiving at Stephen's dad and step-mother's home in Frisco. Also, my parents came up on Wednesday to spend time with us and joined us over at Don and Paula's house for Thanksgiving lunch. Paula's kids, brother and friend celebrated with us too. Paula did a fantastic job hosting and made a delicious lunch for all of us. She even sent out a menu the day before, to get our taste buds ready. Everyone brought something over to contribute to the feast and I made Pecan Pie. It was my first time to make it and it ended up being super easy and very tasty! The kids had a fun time playing inside with their toys and outside with the dogs and ducks. Spencer even took a cat nap during lunch, which meant I could truly enjoy all the wonderful food. I love Thanksgiving because it is a time for family to get together and just truly relax and enjoy each other. Also, it is a time to reflect on all of our blessings and to give thanks for them. I am so grateful to God for my beautiful little family and all of our extended family. We didn't get to spend the day with everyone we love, but they were in our thoughts. I hope everyone had a very Happy Thanksgiving Day!! The countdown is now on for Christmas!! :)
