"We have so much to be THANKFUL for..."

Thanksgiving...
A day usually celebrated by food and drink.
Yet, the most fulfilling aspect is not to be found on plate, bowl, on cup of cider,
but in the family, friends, and those held dear, both near and far.
For without those "ingredients" there would be no cause for celebration.
Celebrate with fulfillment of the Heart and the enrichment of the Soul.

Granddad read this to us today, and we truly did have a wonderful day with our family...

Mommy and Daddy adore Mallory and are thankful for her everyday...

Mommy LOVES Mallory so much!!!

Mallory is very thankful to have such wonderful grandparents...
Granddad and Mimi...



Granny and Papaw...


There is nothing like a grandmother's love...

Mallory did miss her Mimi and Pawpaw who couldn't come over today...


After our big Thanksgiving lunch, Mallory, Mommy, Mimi, and Granny had to get some exercise...Mallory was being so funny on her bike...

She enjoyed looking at the Christmas decorations that were starting to make their appearance around the neighborhood...

She said, "I want to hold baby Jesus!" But, I told her she would have to just give him a kiss...


We got back just in time from our bike ride for Bryce, Brooklyn, Uncle Joe, and Aunt Angie to get to our house...

Mallory was very excited to see them!

They played in the backyard...


Brooklyn joined in the fun, too!


Mallory and Bryce shared some pie together...


YUMMY!!


Granny even got Bryce and Uncle Joe a birthday cake since she would not get to see them on their birthdays...

Mallory was happy about that, because that meant TWO desserts in ONE day!!!


Two sweet, tired, little girls...

Mallory is also thankful for her best friend, Daisy...

Thanksgiving 2008 was a special day spending time with those we are thankful for and love very much!
