Happy Thanksgiving!

We started off the day pretty early, heading to my Mom's at about 9:00am. Wasn't Bella just gorgeous this morning in her matching hair bow??



While I helped Mom cook/clean/prepare for the big lunch, my husband planned his Black Friday attack, newspapers in hand. Needless to say, while Brad goes shopping at the crack of dawn with his Mom and Aunt Becky, I'll be keeping the bed warm!



Here's Mom carving the turkey:

After we all ate lunch, we headed to the house for a MUCH needed nap! Then, we headed over to Brad's Mom's house for dinner. We got to spend time with his aunt, uncle and cousins that we rarely get to see, so that was a real treat! Brad, his mom-Ann, his aunt-Becky, his cousin-Maggie, his cousin-Morgan and I all played a 3 hour game of Phase 10. I came in second.......to his Mom! And it was her first time playing the game! We had so much fun that we are going back tomorrow! And hopefully the rain will subside sometime tomorrow so that Brad and I can go get a Christmas tree and hang the lights outside!
We had such a wonderful day and we truely have so much to be thankful for. Our new little family, each other, our friends, our Bella, our wonderful house, our jobs, our many many blessings, but most of all, we are thankful for our Lord and Savior, our salvation and knowing that our eternal home in glory is secure! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
