Happy Thanksgiving!!

We had a pretty good Thanksgiving.  It was just the 4 of us and we were looking forward to it.  This year is the first year that we are having holidays with just our little family.  SInce we've been married we've always been with family, or they've come here. Which we love, but we we're excited to start our own little traditions and pass on ones we've grown up with.

We started out our day with having some donuts.  I tried to do some baked ones and sadly they didn't turn out too hot.  They weren't bad, but not a make over. Everett loved them though!  He got so excited when I asked if he wanted a donut.  WE got a picture of him after eating and unfortunately that is our only picture from Thanksgiving :)

The rest of the day was spent with Todd smoking our delicious turkey, watching football, and cooking/baking in the kitchen.  We had dinner and then took showers.  I couldn't believe it was 5 and we were all still in our pajamas.  The sad part is that the only reason we got out of them is so we could go to our friend's house for games and dessert.  Besides all the cooking it was nice to just hang out and spend time as a family.

We have so much to be thankful for.  I don't think we ever truly realize everything that we have and usually take for granted.  I'm grateful for my little family and the joy they bring to me.  I'm grateful I have two beautiful kids that call me mom and husband who takes care of us all, and is there for me even during my crazy moments.
