Happy Thanksgiving





We have so much to be thankful for this year! Yesterday we all gathered at Grandmama and Poppy's house for a traditional Thanksgiving feast. We all brought a dish to make it easier on Grandmama. It's a lot of work when you have to prepare everything by yourself. We're blessed or I should say I feel lucky that both Clay and Landon LOVE to cook so it takes pressure off Grandmama and me:) Clay made an amazing sauteed mushroom salad with bacon vinigarette dressing. Landon made his family's famous sage dressing that everyone raved about!


Grandmama decorated the table beautifully with glitter pumpkins, candles, and ribbon. She loves to make the table pretty. Miller had a special turkey placemat and the pilgrim people salt shakers at his place setting. He had his own special dinner to eat..... he's loving the addition of meats this past month, so we fed him turkey and rice & sweet potatoes.
Our entertainment of the evening was watching Miller play with new toys. We're hoping that reaching for unfamiliar toys will entice our little guy to crawl and it's working! He was enthralled with the dump truck's wheels! After mom's pumpkin cheesecake dessert, we put Miller to sleep and Clay, Landon and I went to see a movie...a Miller family tradition. Thanks Grandmama and Poppy for sitting this one out and babysitting...so thankful for all your help!
