Happy Thanksgiving

We were so fortunate this year to be surrounded by grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.  We are so thankful for the precious family that God has blessed us with

Nan, Reed, Grandma and John Austin working a puzzle

Hook 'em horns! 

John Austin and Lauren at the 2nd grade feast
They each recieved two plates...
One with foods the pilgrims might have eaten then, and one with foods we celebrate with today

Really, this says it all

My Favorite Guys


Have you ever seen such a handsome group!
I am so blessed!  I love you guys!


Obviously this should have been with Halloween, but I was having some technical difficulties and could not get it to load.  Happy Halloween!
