Lots To Be Thankful For!

Happy Thanksgiving! This holiday was one of the best holidays I've had in a long time. I really really love Thanksgiving and Christmas and the time we all get to spend with our families. We started off our Thanksgiving with Supper Club (BQYT) the week before which was great. And it gave me a reason to decorate and not have Bobby get all upset about "girly" decorations coming into the house. I really think I kept it low key and didn't go too far over the top. Just a turkey, pumpkins and some festive colors. Table center piece below:

Then, the week of Thanksgiving I was blessed to
have Wednesday-Friday off. So, I spent time with the pups and my parents and really enjoyed getting the house in order and not being rushed for time. My sister didn't come into town until later in the week, but it was great to have everyone in town and to see everyone at my mom's house the day of Thanksgiving. Getting to the day of Thanks, we split our time with both families. What is really great is that Bobby loves family time and never complains about seeing my family and of course I don't complain about his, I love them! We got up early and went over to his mom and dad's to help fry the turkey and were there until about 2:00 and then we went to my parents' house for the rest of the afternoon. My mother out did herself with her centerpiece, but that's what you get when you have a decorator. It looked awesome and the food was good too. We ate twice and I could barely get the iced tea down, but everything was really good. Mom's table:

Post stuffing ourselves literally we played Monopoly with the family where my grandmother and aunt got a little too intense for us. And we introduced Bobby to our family tradition of Spades. He claims he's never played, but I think he might have played before. Either way he complained the entire time and then won the game! Crazy, but it makes me love him more. My family really cares for him too which is an added bonus. All in all Thanksgiving was a great time. I have a lot to be Thankful for and I couldn't ask for more than what I have. Plus, we had my mom take our Christmas Card pictures!! You'll have to wait and see those when they hit the mail. Hope you all enjoyed your holiday and know how thankful I am for each and every one of you.
