I feel truly blessed as there is so much to be thankful for this year. We have a beautiful, healthy little girl who is full of spunk and spirit, I have wonderful, loving, husband who is my best friend, and we are blessed with wonderful, supportive parents, the best siblings we could ever ask for, and four beautiful nieces. To top that off we have some pretty awesome friends both here in Iowa and up in MN. We have a roof over our head, jobs that provide and enough food in our cupboards/fridge/freezer to feed us for months! We are so fortunate and so thankful for the things we have. We celebrated this year here in Iowa with John's family. Not only did we celebrate Thanksgiving we also celebrated the Emma and Olivia's 6th birthday!
We had some delicious food and everyone contributed. We filled our bellies, relaxed for awhile, had some dessert, and then played a large game of pictionary where the men beat the women. Elsie had her own little Thanksgiving meal too-She gobble up turkey like it was going out of style, enjoyed mashed potatoes with cream cheese and butter, a dinner roll, and some cheese.
Uncle Denny was entertaining Elsie with her little Monkey.
Whenever Elsie is at Grandma Bev's she goes straight for these little birds.
She just loves them!
My little turkey making a mad dash.
Reading a story with Grandma Ev...she did not want to leave her at all!
Chilling with Grandpa Dale...just about time for bed.
It was a great day with great family. Of course I missed my family up in MN but we will have to make up for it over Christmas :). Now we are ready to start the Christmas Season!
Cheers Tan!!
