Thanksgiving 2009

Aside from practically everyone getting sick this Thanksgiving, it was a great one. It is a rare occasion when one side of the family is all together at once and this Thanksgiving was special because everyone on Mark's side came to Dallas for the holiday. Jacob was on cloud 9 the whole time because he had all of his cousins here to play with. And they were all such good sports -- they loved entertaining him! Maddie also got lots of QT with Nanny and Papa and barely ever left the loving arms of anyone in the family. Jacob keeps asking about his cousins now that everyone is gone. I really hope it's not long before we are all together again!

Ring around the rosie is always fun. Especially in an ice cream shop:

Mmm, it was good!
