It was our first Thanksgiving hosting both indoors and in our new home. Following years of Harvestfests, we’ve claimed this holiday in our family.
The kids helped make place cards, Hadley decorating the backside, Carson carefully spelling out each name:
Both kids helped decorate the table, filling the centerpieces with pine cones, apples, filberts and other fall items:
Jason ran a tight ship, writing out the play-by-play on the blackboard. Which worked out well {as much as everyone gave him grief :}.
Lily and Penny taste testing:
Prepping:
Neighbors stopped by for pre-dinner vino:
Papa reading stories to Kate:
Chin-ups at the park with cousin Calvin {gotta burn off those calories}:
The weekend was extra special with all five cousins together and Julie and Aaron flying up from LA. I didn’t manage to get a group shot of everyone at the table, which I guess was a sign we were too busy enjoying good food and company, lots of laughter and making memories.
