Gobble, Gobble

Happy Thanksgiving 2014!  We have so much to be thankful for ~ family, friends, health, jobs...and I could go on and on!  We spent this year with Greg's side of the family enjoying lunch and laughs!
our slogan for the day
 Cooper is ready to eat!
 So is Reagan!
 Cooper and Bubba volunteered to sit at trays to give the rest of us a little more room at the table
 I was there too! (very awkward shot of me!)
 Reagan dressed as an Indian for our lunch.  She really wanted Cooper to wear his Indian outfit too, but he wouldn't agree!
 the happy couple!
 the kids took a break from eating to watch a little TV
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; His love endure forever.
Psalms 106:1

Thanksgiving Play

Today, Cooper's 1st Grade class put on a Thanksgiving program for their families.  First, they had a dress rehearsal for 3 of the other 1st grade classes, the principal and assistant principal.
Cooper was an Indian in the program

Small Group Thanksgiving Lunch

We had our Bible study small group over for Thanksgiving lunch this afternoon.  
the house needed to be cleaned before everyone arrived, thankfully I had a helper!
 I didn't take any pictures of the whole group today, and only took a few of the kids.  We had 10 adults and 4 kids over today
 Annabelle & Reagan
 Maggie & Cooper
 After lunch, the girls went outside to play...not really sure where Cooper was! 
We had such an enjoyable afternoon of talking, laughing and eating!

Giving Thanks

We went back to Hickory to celebrate Thanksgiving with our friends who became our family during our tenure there!  We ate, talked, laughed, played games, danced, sang along with Pandora, and giggled all day and into the night!
the kids table
Eden, Brandon, Jacob, Cooper, Lexi, Taylor & Reagan
 The adults
Brian, Amy, Linda, Greg, Tara, Jessica, & Duane
 after a delicious lunch, we headed outside for some driveway gating!  We had the tents set up, football on tv, desserts and a fire pit
 the boys played a little football
 Cooper played pirates
 the girls ate dessert
 the adults played corn hole...and I just have to brag that Greg and I are the BAMily grand champions of corn hole!!
 giving daddy a kiss
 mmm, hot chocolate!
 petting Gracie
 Jess, Me, Amy
 silly guys
 they can be somewhat normal too!
 Cooper was feeling left out of the photos
 they all made fun of me for having on 3 shirts, a fleece jacket, and a toboggan...but I was warm!
 Cooper and daddy
 Cooper and mommy (Reagan spent most of her time with the "big girls" away from mom & dad)
 Fun around the fire
 doesn't that face scream "enough with the pictures!"?
 roasting marshmallows
 enjoying the fruits of his labor
 one more girl photo
 I love this man!
 the Boninis joined us for the fire pit fun!
It was so good to see all of our friends again.  Too bad our time was short.  We were able to join up with more friends, but alas there are no pictures.  We visited with Ms Deb before we left and we met up with the Whitfords for a four hour breakfast at the Cracker Barrel!
