Our Thanksgiving


 I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

We spent this year with Mackenzie's family, due to my family living in two other completely different states. Its just easier to stay here. We had a good time but I definitely miss Thanksgiving with my family. I realized and told Mackenzie that since I moved to Oregon, over 5 years ago, I haven't been able to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family. It's weird but its never really hit me until this year. We talked about trying to visit either my Dad or Mom next Thanksgiving.


We are however, going to spend Christmas with my Dad and the rest of my family in California which will be wonderful! I can't wait! 


Anyway, on to this year's Thanksgiving. We had a great time! 



We celebrated and feasted at Mackenzie's aunt's house. This was the place near "Happy Lane" that I posted about yesterday. Unfortunately, it was pouring down rain and we were unable to get a picture underneath the "Happy Lane" sign. 



Here's Sharon and I! And I can't believe I'm posting this picture below but it's the result of my husband just snapping the camera before we were ready. I cracked up when I saw the look on my face!



How does this happen? Sharon looks fine but I don't know what's going on with me! It gave us a great laugh!



Finally, here's a picture of the 4 brothers. I'll tell ya, it was like pulling teeth to try to get them to scoot closer together to take one, just one picture!! They look great though! 

Today, my husband is planning to hang our Christmas lights and I'm going to start decorating! We may even get a tree! 

Have a blessed day!

I hope you can be with your family again too, Brittany. It looks like a fun celebration for you all. We look forward to seeing you soon for Christmas. I still want to see your home. We just have not made it over there yet. The pictures of your home are beautiful that I've seen. Love you, Kathi
