So after Grandma and Grandpa left, we decided to invite ourselves over to my aunt, uncle, and cousins house for one big festive Thanksgiving. It took a lot of planning and doing, but we went. I of course had to push, shove, and obviously do most of the packing to get this thing going, but it happened.

Ryker and I all ready to go.

Our Pilot at the helm all ready to go.

As much as we like to travel, this view gets very old. That is why Ryker and I have learned the art of sleeping in the car.

AAAHHHH, we were being chased by the Ghost Light! (Or mommy realizing that trying to take a picture of the moon while traveling in a car going 65 mph doesn't work.)

Thanksgiving Morning. It was like the sky was anticipating the Thankfulness that would soon fill the air.

A face that says I am thankful for food.

A smile that says I am thankful for everything.

A hug that says I am thankful for you!

My sweet cousin Ella had drawn my name for the Cousin Christmas Exchange. She could hardly wait for me to get out of the bath so I could open my present. A Fancy Nancy nightgown!

Landon is amazing, and decided to go with a new ever popular trend and FRY the turkey. So here is the boys doing what boys do. (Ryker kept watching out the window, trying to communicate that he was the last male in the house and he couldn't handle all the estrogen anymore. So he finally did what boys do in such situations, took a long nap.)

Can you really have a Thanksgiving Dinner without pumpkin pie? I think if you tried, the Thanksgiving Police would come and arrest you for breaking with Traditional Holiday Law. But we will never know since we will always have Pumpkin Pie.

Oh turkey . . . Oh yummy.

Table beautifully set with all the all the adornments.

The FEAST! It was absolutely superb. Shellie and Landon, THANK YOU!!!

Two fancy cousins after an exciting day full of thanksgiving! What a wonderful day.

I knew there must be a reason why my internal "somebody is in another room" alarm was going off all day on Thanksgiving! Glad you guys got to have family, fun, and a feast! (And I am glad nobody was injured in the frying of the turkey.)
Ella and Michelle are so sweet together! Love it!
Hey I think this is one of the first posts I didn't magically end up in one of the pictures! But does it count I took one of them? Does the empty space in my chair at the table count for me? I hope so!
