Feeling Thankful

This Thanksgiving our family has so much to be thankful for:  Jasper and I have a great partnership and marriage, a supportive family and an amazing little baby.  For the first time, we got to celebrate Thanksgiving Day as a family of three.


We also were able to celebrate this day with both of my grandmothers.  I love that Jax gets to spend time with them both and know how lucky we are.



While waiting for dinner, Jax played with some of the awesome toys at my parents' house.  
They are building quite the collection. 

Every kid needs a shiny red convertible right?


Jax wasn't the only new member to the dinner this year.  My cousin Jessie and her husband have a new addition to their family this year as well:  Boogie.


Jax enjoyed his first Thanksgiving meal.  He ate more than he usually does 
and must have gotten the memo that you stuff yourself of Thanksgiving.  






Thanks for such a great dinner Madre and Papa Bear! 

 
This year has brought so many blessings in our lives that it doesn't feel like one day of celebration is adequate.  So while the turkey and family get togethers might all occur this weekend, I am trying to be thankful for what we have been given every day and not take any of it for granted.

Happy Thanksgiving.

  1. funny thing.... I saw the convertible bouncer the other day in a magazine and mentioned to Roger "how much you wanna bet that Jax gets one for Christmas?" seems as if he got one a bit earlier than I expected. HA HA HA

  2. That is funny. It is VERY obvious Jax is a first grandchild, on both sides.
