Thanksgiving

 Thanksgiving with Pete's family was a little different this year. Pete's grandmother has moved from her home into his parents home. We stayed with Pete's sister this time and the kids had a great time! It was very fun for them to stay with their cousins and play with all of their toys. I think they managed to touch every town in their Auntie's house. A good time was had by all. Thank you Leigh Ann and Dave for being such great hosts!

We had Thanksgiving dinner at Pete's folks and the kids met their great grandmother and were thrilled to have the chance to spend some time with her. She is a dear sweet lady and very entertaining! It is very nice to have her here and be a part of our family gatherings. We are all looking forward to spending more time with her at Christmas.

 Like I said the kids were everywhere in the house and outside! The weather was quite nice so the kids even raked leaves.

 We had to bring relish for my family and again had an idea and my hubby brought the idea to life! I am so lucky to have such a clever man in my life! Anywho here is the "turkey" relish tray! love it!

 

My family got a little wild this year. Wigs were tried this year and here is a sample of those participating. It is surprising how a person's look can change so much!

The youngest and eldest exchanging smiles and stories about the day! My mom with her great grandson, so sweet. 

This was a family gathering filled with new relationships. Brie found a few new buddies and PJ and another realized they were only 5 months apart in age and they love the same things! It was neat to see everyone finding new cousins to play with .
Talk about beautiful weather though! We even had the doors open for most of the afternoon and it was so nice.

We took in the local Christmas lights with mom at the drive thru light park. We all enjoyed the lights but little Miss Brie is soo into Christmas this year! She could hardly stay in her seat, she was so excited about every new light!
