Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving! 
This year was a little different ... It was our year to go to St. Louis, but Brad was going to Texas to see Tiff's family, and my mom and dad were still in Florida receiving therapy after her fall.  With Christmas right around the corner, we decided to stay home this year and head to St. Louis in a few weeks.  Our Jackson family had an off year, too .... Steven and Vadessa went to see her family, Mark and Kathy couldn't come up this year, so we had Nonna and Dada, Aunt Beth and Uncle Morris and a family from our church join us for Thanksgiving dinner at our house.

Here is Daddy preparing the turkey for roasting!


Eli is peeling potatoes!  This is his second year for this job and getting pretty proficient!


Madeline and Susanna are mashing up potatoes...




Carving the turkey....


Eli and Daddy arguing over the wishbone!


Daddy won!


Madeline folding napkins ...


Dinner time!  


Some evening entertainment!


Although we didn't get to see all our family, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving!


Our friends Lindsay, Josiah and Gynneth!


The girls....


The boys....


These three miracles - what joys to be thankful for!


Chilling out before bed reading some Thanksgiving stories!


Happy Thanksgiving!
