Thanksgiving & Black Friday

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving...we sure did.  We started our day off at my Dad's for lunch.  Our entire family was able to be there, so that was nice.  I had to make a potato casserole, corn casserole and a banana pudding.  I was a little worried about the banana pudding b/c I have only made it one other time, but everyone said it tasted pretty good. 
We took Jacques with us and Johnathan took Cane with him.  It was fun watching the two of them run around with my Dad's dog, Tanner.  It is nice to be able to let them run free for a while.
After we cleaned up it was time to head to MeMa's to have dinner with Mom's side of the family.  We all had a great time, but did miss our cousin, Grayson.  With him just starting his job a few months ago in Memphis, he didn't have enough vacation time to come home for Thanksgiving.  Guess we will just have to catch up with him during Christmas. 

We had a great time playing with these three...

Today has been a crazy day.  My cousin, Lesley, spent the night with us last night.  We left the house around 11:20 last night to head to Target.  We did a little shopping there and then came back home to sleep for a few hours.  We then got up and headed out again at 7.  Needless to say it has been a crazy day, but I was able to get a few Christmas presents.

There was a lot of us shopping, but we had a lot of fun.  It is always fun and extra special when we get to play with babies as we shop.  Here are two of the smiling faces we were with today...
I tried to get a picture of the big sister, but she was not interested in smiling for the camera.
I have thoroughly enjoyed my last 2 days and have so much to be thankful for.
