Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Ours was wonderful! It was full of family, good food, football, games, fun, laughter, sharing and even some crying (the good kind). We all went over to Joe & Trecia's who were nice enough to host dinner this year. We all pitched in and brought something to share and everything was DELICIOUS! Joe and Trecia's family have this super cute tradition of pouring a random amount of dry beans on each plate then going around the table and saying something you're thankful for for each bean you have. This is where it got a bit emotional. You may not always see it, but Ron has such a sweet, sensitive side. I really enjoyed this part of dinner. After dinner we let our tummies settle while relaxing and watching some football. Then we headed outside (the weather was beautiful) to play some games of our own. First we played "I love my family, especially the ones who...". Everyone sits in a circle with one person in the middle who fills in the blank with something like "especially the ones who wear glasses", then everyone wearing glasses has to get up and change seats. The one left without a seat is left in the middle to call out the next group. This was a ton of fun. The kids loved it, I think they could have played for hours. Next we played Red Rover, Simon Says and the boys played some basketball. It was so nice spending time playing games and we managed to get through the day with only minor injuries. =) I am so very thankful for ALL of my family. We are truly lucky to enjoy one another as much as we do.

I just had to put it on here because I love Jared's stance!

If you don't know who we are then you shouldn't be reading this. Just kidding, everyone is welcome here! This was at the end of the day so Addison was extremely tired and not in the mood to cooperate for pictures (as was Urban which is why he's sleeping).
