HAPPY THANKSGIVING!



We wish you all the very best day and hope you enjoy yourself no matter who you're with or what you're doing. I hope you took a moment to really think about all the blessings that God has poured out and truly thanked HIM for them.



We are in East Georgia (Swainsboro) at my mom and dad's house. We arrived Wednesday night and mom was already busy preparing for the feast. We had Turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, green beans, cranberry salad, pineapple salad, sweet potatoe casserole, and pumpkin and pecan pies. YUMMY!! My grandparents and Aunt and Uncle came over to mom and dad's house and it was a really nice dinner. Afterward we went outside and let Megan play in the leaves. She's been begging to make a big pile of leaves and jump in them, so we finally made it. She had a blast! Mom and dad have 5 huge pecan trees in their yard and the pecans are falling, so all the grown ups were digging through the leaves and collecting pecans. We filled two big buckets! Dad has an old John Deere tractor in their backyard (it's actually my uncle Ross' and dad's holding it here for him) and Megan wanted to sit up in it, so we got David up there and Megan was having fun sitting with daddy. Soon, Tyler got into the action and all three were having a blast. Megan wanted to drive it, but it's not in running order. But, uncle Ross has several tractors at his place, so we all loaded up and headed over there. He gave Dave the quick "how-to" and soon he and Megan were cruising the land. At first, Megan wasn't too sure about it because it was loud, but soon she settled in and was smiling big. Tyler, again, had to get in on the action, so David took him for a spin, too. It was great to see them ALL having such fun.



What a fun day!
