Thanksgiving!

We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving this year! We hosted and had my mom, dad, laura, Bill, Grandmommy, Jeremy, Noah, Jessica and Freckles. It was the perfect day. My incredible husband was so much help, he cleaned while I cooked. I couldn't have had such a stress free day without him. The food was great (everybody brought something), we all had a great time and I was truly thankful that we have such a great family. Jackson was pretty pooped by the end of the day but he loved having so much family at our home. It was my first Thanksgiving with all of my parents in quite a few years and it was really special. We definitely missed the Osby's and the Francis family but had a fabulous day. God has been so good to us and we feel very blessed these days.
All in all it was a very peaceful day and we can't wait to host again!

Jay and Jackson watching the Thanksgiving parade. They both loved watching it together and it reminded Jay of when he was a kid and always watched it with his father.







I can't belive Jackson didn't disturb the china!



Jay carving the delicious turkey. I had cooked a turkey (my first time) for our moms group Thanksgiving party a few weeks prior but Mom took care of it today.



Watching tv and waiting for the food to be ready.



The happy engaged couple! Jackson adores Noah and Jess. All morning he kept asking when they would arrive.



Dad, Jer and Freckles.



Jackson playing with his Papa and Nana. Jackson was pretty excited and energetic all day and Nana was a saint to play with him. He was in heaven with her and I was pretty happy with the break:)



We had SO MUCH food! Mom made a turkey, gravy and brought 4 pies; I made baked stuffed acorn squash, stuffing, and green bean cassarole; Dad and Laura made mashed potatoes and sweet potatoe cassarole; Grandmommy made broccoli cassarole and cranberry salad; Jess made cookies and Neiman Marcus brownies. . .there was so much delicious food! Jay said he hurt himself with all of his favorites:)



The dessert table. . .yum!
