I made Barrett a Thanksgiving shirt from his little hand print.
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with family!!! Wednesday evening, my mom made a yummy Thanksgiving feast at their house. It was fabulous! I LOVE dressing like my Nanny used to make and my mom always makes me some now that my Nanny is in Heaven. I meant to get some to bring home and forgot!! Guess she'll have to make it again!! haha!
After dinner, we all piled in the car and took Barrett to Santa Land. He LOVED it!! He was in awe of all the Christmas lights and music. He sat in his Daddy's lap the whole time so he could see really well. Seeing your baby get so excited over things makes you kinda feel like a kid again!!

Thursday, we got up and headed to the farm with Bens parents and family. Most everyone was able to come! We did miss Luke, Meredith, and Hal but we will get to see them at Christmas!! The weather was perfect!!! Polly cooked a huge, yummy feast that we all enjoyed...and enjoyed...and enjoyed!!!
Barrett played with Titan on the kid tractor and had a blast! He rode in the mule and on the 4-wheeler with Pops! Ben and I were able to sit in the deerstand one evening while Jean and Tom watched Barrett. We didn't see anything but it was still nice just to sit in peace with nobody but Ben!! :)
The burn ban was FINALLY lifted so Clint built a big bonfire at the farmhouse. It was great! We all had a good time sitting and 'shooting the bull'.
Saturday, Ben and I cooked brunch at the cabin and got all packed up to head home. Him and his Dad had to go fix a couple things so they took off in Tommy's truck through the woods. It was taking a while but we weren't worried. Well...did I mention it was pouring down rain???....here they come WALKING from the woods...DRENCHED! They had gotten the truck stuck and it was very close to a tree and couldn't get it out. The mud down there gets really slick when it rains. Thankfully, they called someone who was able to come and get the truck out. Meanwhile, Jean, Barrett, and I enjoyed coffee on the screenporch, watching the rain, and visiting with Polly and Crystal!! haha.
We had a kinda long drive home but Barrett did great and we made it home safe and sound!
Another wonderful Thanksgiving!!! We have SO MUCH to be thankful for!!!
