Thanksgiving Day

In honor of tradition, we woke up early, bundled ourselves and the nuggets, donned our running gear and participated in the Turkey Trot!

The oldest nuggets were thrilled to be ‘running’ with everyone…as they were official and even had shirts and bib numbers!

The littlest nugget stayed back and bundled as he and Gigi cheer the rest of our group on!

After the Trot, we headed south to Texas Mimi’s house for Thanksgiving. We were able to catch the tail end of the parade, which caught these two nugget’s fancy.

Little C enjoyed catching up with Mimi and cuddled with her while his brother and sister watched the balloons and floats.

There is something so special about this space…this table…the place settings…probably because of it’s continuity, it doesn’t change…it’s like a time capsule of sweet memories…

Inhabited in all it’s sweetness!

After dinner, before dessert, we went around the table and shared what we were thankful for…it was pretty special time.

After some ‘serious’ time…these two got to work on burning off their Thanksgiving dinner…

After dessert, we all ‘retired’ to the den to watch some football.  Little C enjoyed some Aunie B time…
