Our Thanksgiving

I trust each of you had a happy Thanksgiving! We had a very enjoyable time with Mark's family. His dad had lots of family in for the holiday, and we enjoyed visiting with all of them. I thought I would share a few pictures. (For some strange reason, we didn't take very many pictures. These pictures are mainly taken by Mark's sister Lauren.)

Cousin fun!


Enjoying a yummy Thanksgiving meal!


The kids had a blast picking up pecans. I loved this picture that Lauren took!


A skirt full!


Enjoying the fire


Fun times!


I love playing games! Anyone up for Mexican Train?


or Uno?


Friday we did some shopping - Antique shopping and a thrift store mostly. (We avoided all that mall stuff for the most part.) :) On Saturday, Mark's mom, Lauren, Mary (Mark's brother's wife) and I played Santa's elves - we decorated Mark's grandmothers' homes for Christmas!


So now we are back at home and in the process of putting up all our Christmas decor. (the tree lights have been a process this year.) Speaking of Christmas decor, if you are reading this in a blog reader, you may want to hop over and see my festive blog decor! :) Tomorrow begins the Days of Christmas!
