Merry Thanksgiving!

It's Thanksgiving Day, and we have so much to be thankful for. We have loving supportive families. We have a beautiful and lively little girl. We have a little boy on the way who already brings us so much joy. We have a home. We have wonderful friends. All our needs are met and usually even our wants. The list could go on and on for us, and I am sure most of you feel the same way.

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving day! We stayed in GA for the holidays, but my parents came to visit. In addition, we had 3 young soldiers, from the local army base, join us. Our menu included: fried turkey, rice dressing, sweet potato crunch, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, and fresh baked bread. Dessert was apple pie and pumpkin roll. It was all amazing and, I'm pretty sure we all ate a little too much.

The reason I entitled this blog "Merry Thanksgiving," is because our thanksgiving holiday felt a little like Christmas. We decided to decorate our house for Christmas a little early since we would be leaving for LA in just a few short weeks. And we even decided to give Landry her big Christmas gift today. I know that would be a cardinal sin for some people, but we knew we couldn't bring it with us to LA to give to her. And we hated to give it to her the day before we left, just so she would have to wait 2 more weeks to play with it. Here are some pictures and video clips from the last couple of days.

I was so excited to let Landry help decorate the Christmas Tree.

But she decided decorating GiGi was much more fun!
