So Thankful

I look forward to Turkey Day every year not only for all the yummy food but also for the time we get to spend with our families! This year we spent it with the McNeil side. We tried the whole eating 2 dinners one year and we were miserable. We stopped by my Grandparent’s house early in the day to see everyone before heading over to Matt & Kate’s. The food looked so yummy and Brian was tempted to dig in. I grabbed a serving of my Aunt Cyndi’s mashed potatoes, the ones made with cream cheese and garlic in them. Yummy!

The McNeil clan has become quite larger since I joined. I remember when there were only 2 tables and now there are 3 plus a kid’s table! Next year there will be two more additions to the bunch and who knows how many there will be in 2013. I love it! The more the merrier!

The food at the McNeil’s was worth the wait! Everything was delicious. Our plates were salad size and of course Brian complained but I didn’t. It was perfect. I didn’t go back for seconds and I can say this was the first Thanksgiving I wasn’t stuffed. I was satisfied as they teach us in WW. LoL

It couldn’t have been a more beautiful day. The boys burned off their dinner playing football while the girls chatted inside. We gathered everyone together for the traditional couch picture. It shows how much the group has grown as they use to all fit on the couch!

This year I am extremely thankful for my husband, my job, my health, my wonderful family and friends and all the other many blessings the Lord has given me.

I hope each and every one of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving as well!
