Thanksgiving 2010

Thanksgiving this year was really fun. We had Taralee and her family and Danica and her family with us for a few days. Ryan popped in and out as time allowed. Rustin didn't make it but we're already looking forward to spending time with him at Christmas.

Jim had a few chicks ready to hatch out and Brody loved watching them. He's learning to be very careful when he holds them. Jim's learning to react quickly when Brody is through holding them. haha
Grandpa, Dottie and Cole. They love Grandpa's lap.

Taralee and Danica made Turkey shirts for the kids to wear on Thanksgiving. They sure had fun designing them and the kids looked so cute in them.
Ryan holding Dottie and talking on the phone. He's good at multi-tasking.

Dottie in her turkey shirt (pink of course.)

Brody loves the computer. Whoever thought a three year old could figure out how to use one?

Cole in his turkey shirt.

Dottie is our little thumb sucker. She is such a good baby.


What's harder than trying to capture a good picture of three small kids, ages 3 and under???


I'll tell you....it's trying to capture a picture of three young kids with their grandparents. haha We weren't very successful.
My beautiful and very talented girls.

My Christmas tree that Danica decorated for me. I love it.
Dottie in her little Sunday dress. Such a dolly.
Brother and sister. He loves her.
Taralee and Trace.
Ryan.
Cody. Just chillin.
Nanna and Dottie.
Aunt Danica loves this little girl.
That's about it for pictures. It was such a fun weekend. We were busy crafting, shopping, playing with kids, putting up Christmas decorations, sewing, cooking, doing dishes, eating, laughing, teasing, cooking, eating..... (wait, I already said that.) but YES, we did do a lot of that!
I look forward to the next time we get to spend together. I can't ever seem to get enough of my family! I'm so thankful for them, each and every one are so special to me.
