Thanksgiving

We loaded up and hit the road last Sunday morning for a week of Thanksgiving break!  Our first two stops were Shipley's and Starbucks to get us started on our 6 hour trip.
The essentials!

Our boys were great travelers!  Bennett fell asleep 10 minutes before we stopped for lunch of course!

But he was as happy as can be!

We all went and sat in the deer stands that afternoon.

Going on a four wheeler ride with Uncle Brad!

Bennett got to sit the first two days but then nobody wanted to take him!  He would've rather stay at the house and play anyways.

Lots of crafting

And coloring

Helping Daddy drive

Headed out to the stands

Always armed with lots of snacks!

Wondering why he can't see any deer!

Grammy even shot a deer while Bennett sat with him!  B knew to cover his ears!

Happy boys!

Going for a ride!






They LOVED being outside so much!

Beautiful sunset from the deer stand.





Riding around with Pawpaw!

He loved climbing on every vehicle!


Daddy and his turkeys!

On Wednesday the boys went fishing for 4 hours!  They were very successful and caught 47 keepers. They had lots of fun!












Gotta love West Texas air - no curls for my boys!



I'll take a cuddly nap on my lap any day!



Watching the parade on Thursday morning!

Playing with their 2nd cousin, Sawyer.

And back to more parade watching - they loved the bands!






Making rice krispie treats with Mimi!



Going out with Daddy one last morning before we headed to Waco. 

Friday morning we hit the road to Waco!  

The girls braved the crowds at Magnolia that afternoon.  It was worth it!

Making cookies on Saturday morning!

The crazy cousin table for Thanksgiving lunch on Saturday!

And a selfie of everybody!  Until we realized about an hour later the Trent actually didn't make it.  But he was there too!


Bowling fun after naps on Saturday!


Bennett LOVED it!


A bowling ball or 29 weeks pregnant?!

He was either bowling or climbing...

Graham is an old pro!  See Bennett climbing?  That was his perch!


A sleepy Bennett on the drive home on Sunday morning!

We had a wonderful week with family and made so many great memories!  We were excited to get home to decorate and start all of our fun Christmas activities!





My purchase from Magnolia - the arched window frame above my buffet!

Currently my favorite room in the house!

  1. Such a fun week for y'all! Favorite pictures of Graham's camo sunglasses, Bennett's straight hair, and his upside down binos. And I can't understand why nobody wanted him in the deer stand😀. We sure had a good
    Weekend with y'all. So much fun bowling! Your Christmas decorations look so pretty. I love the arch from Magnolia in the dining room.
