Thanksgiving Memories To Hold Dear

I would definitely have to say that yesterday will go down in the books as one of the most memorable.  It was the first Thanksgiving I had spent at my mother’s house in years and years.  It was my son’s first Thanksgiving.  And sadly, it could potentially be my grandmother’s last.  I don’t want to be too negative, but she’s 91.  We almost lost her last year and she is doing ok, but is in constant pain.  She was thrilled to be surrounded by her family (how few there are of us).  I was able to get this picture and I know I will hold it dear forever.  I wish I had gotten my daughter in the picture as well, which makes me sad.   

 

My husband wasn’t too thrilled to have to drive down there and miss the football game. But, he was taping it and could watch it later. It was nice to go to someone else’s house and not have to cook! We usually host Thanksgiving every year, but my in-laws are away and it didn’t make sense for us to have my mom and grandma drive to us.

The kids behaved.  Yeah!! We ate a ton. We drove home content. We did some online shopping last night and scored some deals for the kids (Bonus!!!) It was a wonderful day.  I am extremely blessed to say the least.
