Thanksgiving 2013

                                     Thanksgiving 2013
When dressing the table I kept the little ones in mind.
Gummy pumpkins and licorice cats 


Lots to be thankful for...like pumpkin pie, for a start.
I'm thankful for this wonderful family with all that we share. 

Riley chattin' with Audrey
Yes, she stuck around today. She couldn't quite figure out what to make of Riley, though. She wasn't giving up her bed to anybody. They just stared at each other most of the time.

 We had a long-time friend of the family join us this year. I have known Chels since she was a tot and look at the beauty she is today.
 
                       Allie and Chelsea
 " Cheers, everyone"
                  We were squeezed in like thankful sardines. 

 I hope all my Canadian friends had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Does this mean I can start thinking Christmas now? YES!! Right after I take a nap.

hugs, Deb

    I sure wish us Americans would have Thanksgiving in October. Would be so much easier on travel plans. And it's so pretty outside and still not so cold, instead of gray and dreary! Looks like you had a lovely Thanksgiving with family. Riley is getting to look like quite the little lady also. Lovely grandchildren.

    I wish our Thanksgiving was in October and then it wouldn't feel like the mad rush to get Christmas done. Happy Holiday--love the gathering, XOXO

    LOVE the picture of Riley with Audrey - little people and animals together always make the most tender shots.
