Thanksgiving '09

We celebrated 2 different Thanksgivings this year with both of our family's. We headed out to Greenville on Wednesday evening to spend a few days with my parents. All of my mother's side of the family came for the day on Thursday. We ate a huge, delicious meal and then enjoyed catching up with everyone.

Here are Kathryn and Caleb enjoying their Thanksgiving dinner. My kids are extremely picky eaters and wouldn't touch anything from the huge spread of food! Kathryn wanted a roll and Caleb wanted a banana. I tried and tried to get them to eat more, but nothing worked. Hopefully one day they will try some new things!


Every holiday we get a picture of Caleb and Kathryn with Pop, their great grandfather. He will be 90 this next year! Of course, Superman made a visit too:)


Here's Grampy and Kathryn getting some cuddles in:


On Friday afternoon we packed up and headed to Litchfield beach to celebrate with Russ' family. We enjoyed spending time with Russ' parents and his brother Greg and his wife Amanda. His other brother Brad and his wife Amanda weren't able to be there because they live too far away in Texas for the time being. We look forward to seeing them at Christmas.

Russ' mom prepared a huge amount of delicious food, so we had tons to eat! Here are Caleb and Kathryn enjoying another Thanksgiving dinner of cheese toast and crackers. How yummy :)

After the big dinner, Papa heated up the spa outside. Caleb and Kathryn LOVED getting to swim for a couple of hours. It was nice and toasty and there!

Wow! I just saw that you had 88 days left on your baby countdown:)

I'm laughing at this post because Roy Boy would not eat anything at Thanksgiving either! It was so frustrating becuase his hobby is eating but yet all he'd eat was a piece of chocolate cake! I love the pics of the kids. Looks like you all had a fun time. And how nice to go to the beach in cold weather!
