Happy Thanksgiving... Gobble Gobble!


We celebrated Thanksgiving in Newton, TX this year with Josh's extended family.  This was Caroline's second trip to see everyone and she definitely had a lot of fun!!  She loved having older cousins around and they did so well entertaining her!  We had such a great time visiting and catching up with everyone.  I didn't get many pictures of this little girl because she was constantly on the go!

 Everyone pitched in and was hard at work for the Feast!
Cousin Brett was so excited to play with Caroline and Cooper that he guarded the stairs while they were taking a nap.  He made sure he heard them if they happened to get up.  :)


Cooper enjoyed every bit of his very first Thanksgiving dinner!
 The annual football game was held outside.  The weather was so beautiful and Nanny's yard was the perfect  place for it!  The big trees and open space was so refreshing to see.
Caroline and Kennedy opted out of the football game!
 What great friends!  Caroline still talks about everyone and asks where Carsyn, Kayla and Kenn-a-di are!  It is the cutest thing!

 Aunt Rosemary took the kids for rides on the golf cart.  Everything was fine and dandy while they were going slow.  However, I didn't crop this picture to explain what really happened!  With a full cart, everyone was having fun when Caroline got excited and walked across the front.  Well she actually stepped on the gas pedal and everyone watched, in what seemed like slow motion, while the golf cart drove directly into the wagon pictured in the background below.  The cart crashed and everyone was startled just a bit.  It could have been a lot worse, but everyone was okay.  Thank goodness!


Caroline and I made cookies for everyone and as she handed them out, she said to every person "Happy Thanksgiving... Gobble Gobble!"  It was the cutest thing and she was quite the sight!
