Thanksgiving at our house!!!! And pics from a far!!!

Well, I finally get down to showing some Thanksgiving pics to y'all. I know I am a slacker big time and I apologize. It was a very busy time and a wonderful time also. Lots of delcious food, good family time, and loads of hugs and love. My daughter Carrie, her hubby Chad, and the 4 little munchkins, along with their 2 furry children arrived Wednesday night. I had done a lot of the repairing of foods on Tuesday night. Carrie brought in the desserts with her. I did make them some fudge and some Puppy Chow, a sweet dessert the kids love.

Before the meal.



Taylor, Carrie, Sydney, Morgan and me(Nanny).


I didn't get a lot of pics, but did get some. Here is meal time. This is Taylor and Morgan.

This is Chad, my son in law.


Here is Cooper & Sydney.

After dinner we all cleaned up the kitchen and rested. Here is Carrie with all 4 doggy's on her... LOL.


We all went to bed, as David worked until 7pm and we waited on him to eat. We got up the next morning and Carrie steam cleaned all my carpets in my house. What a great daughter she is!!!




My carpets are all clean and smelling good!!! We warmed up leftovers Friday night for supper and watched a few Christmas movies.
The next morning ,Saturday, Carrie decided she wanted to paint my kitchen and dining room. The Carolina Gamecock game was on, so during halftime Carrie and I went to Lowe's for paint. Here's Morgan and Sydney sporting their Carolina dresses.


My oldest daughter Aubrey had sent the dresses to the girl's. here is a pic of 2 of my other grand daughters, who live in Mississippi, wearing their dresses also.


This is Dominique and Briannah. Aren't they cute?

The South Carolina Gamecocks, beat the Clemson Tigers that day. YEAH!!!!!

So then the painting began...






My kitchen and dining room look marvelous!!! It needed it so bad!!!
We ordered Papa John's that night. The kids were tired of Thanksgiving food.

Here are some random pics I took.

Thanks for sharing. I don't think I took any photos this Thanksgiving but your photos reminded me of many, many family Thanksgivings when as many of us that could would gather at mom and dad's until mom got too old to do all the cooking. But boy howdy could she put some good fixins on the table...

MMM MMMM GOOD!!! Thanks for bringing back all the memories.
