Gran, Pops, Papa Jerry & Nana must be very dissappointed in my lack of blogging lately. So I apologize. I also failed at getting very many pictures this year at Thanksgiving but here we go. Uncle Zach came to Norman Wednesday night. Aunt Jenny and I spent the afternoon and evening baking rolls and pies and all kinds of other goodies. Rob worked the 8a-5p shift so AJ and Uncle Zach helped me get the kiddos dressed up and we all headed to Arcadia for Thanksgiving at Gigi & Cappy's house.
Cooper would only sit still for a couple of seconds but that meant I got a picture with my baby girl.
Gigi is an excellent card maker and she made this AWESOME banner. I think I may have to commission something for our next party.
First things first Cooper had to show off his truck to Uncle Zach.
He drove around the house so many times (Zach chasing him) that the car ran out of batteries. Zach must have been exhausted but her was miling the whole time.
The twins also celebrated their 1st Thanksgiving. I just love them.
After this point I gave up trying to get pictures and now I am regretting it but I can't go back right? We got home around 4:30 and Rob was already home. No time for his Thanksgiving dinner. Do you think this is enough food for 4 people?
On facebook everyone was updating their status everyday for something they are thankful for. I did not keep up so I wanted to list 30 things I am thankful for.
