Now I know that November is not technically over, there are two days left but it might as well be over. I have fail miserably in the picture taking department for the month of November!! The only pictures I did succeed in getting were some family pictures at our Thanksgiving celebration with my sister and her family. We had a pretty quiet Thanksgiving this year. As usual Rick had to work but since his shift didn't start until 6:30pm he was at least able to eat with us this year!! The food was yummy and we all had an enjoyable time! We did do some black Friday shopping which was so so. Mainly we just enjoyed and were thankful for the time we had to spend together!! Especially with Merrie who flew back from Utah the Tuesday before Thanksgiving! I don't think my kids wanted to let her out of their sight for a few days.
The Saturday after Thanksgiving we got together with my sister Mandy's family for a turkey celebration! Rick deep fried a turkey and we had all the other left over fixings! We also took some much needed family pictures. (There are still more to be taken at a later date!)
Lilly was not in a picture taking mood at that moment in time!
Rick being silly as usually (but that's one of the reasons I love him so much!)
Matthew was a ham as usual!! I can always count on him for good pictures!!
I even got Lilly to sit still enough to get one decent picture of her!!
I feel bad but with all the hustle and bustle leading up to Thanksgiving I always forget to be thankful. It isn't until after the holiday passes that I really sit back and take stock of all the many things myself and my family have to be thankful for!! The list is truly forever long, but I am thankful and I guess that's what matters!
