Very thankful

As usual, we had a wonderful, yet busy, Thanksgiving holiday week. It started with the Saturday before, we went to Christian's mom's to have our only traditional Thanksgiving meal and celebrate Christian brother's, Taylor, birthday. It was a fabulous meal, coupled with lots of great visiting. Unfortunately, Cecilia was sick, so she did not attend, so no pictures! Thursday we went to Christian's dad's in Lexington along with my parents, Marilou, and Brendan. We had filets for dinner, and it was delicious! Friday my brother and his family came in town, and my mom's sister and her family came to my parents' for dinner. Then my cousin Beth, and her family of five, stayed at my house Friday night. Saturday, we celebrated Alexandra and Elijah's birthday with a breakfast pancake party at my parents'. Then that afternoon my dad's side of the family came over to my parents' to celebrate the holiday, which was about 40 people! Sunday morning, we were back at my parents' to have breakfast with my brother and his family before they headed back to Dayton. With all the business, I was not the best at taking pictures, but I'll post some of the good ones from the week!

Cecilia got a little crazy this night.
She had to wear beads all night, and in this
picture she is playing video poker.

Mad because we took out her pacifier to take a picture.
I had given it to her, along with her bunny,
because it was past her bedtime,
and I thought it would buy us some time!
Tuckered out with Uncle John Sunday morning.
This is a child that does not fall asleep on people!
