Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year! Derek (one of John's best friends from high school), his wife Kelli and their boys Louis and Jamey came up from Raleigh to spend the holiday with us. Louis is 3 months younger than John Grayson, so the boys always have a great time playing together. Surprisingly, Delia and Jamey (Derek and Kelli's 17 month old son) played well together too. Delia even shared her doll stroller with him!

MaMa and Pop came over for Thanksgiving dinner, but unlike years past, John decided to take responsibility for the turkey. John did an INCREDIBLE job! He smoked the turkey on the grill, and it was delicious! There was tons of yummy food and everyone was stuffed by the end of the meal. John Grayson announced that "I love Thanksgiving!" and I think that was caused by his full belly :-)

Here are a few pictures from our fun, food-filled weekend:

Before Thanksgiving dinner, we took the kids to the park. The little ones had a blast on the swings!

Delia loved the teeter-totter

John Grayson had so much fun playing at the park with his buddies!

Spinning until you fall down!

Jamey wanted to join in on the dizzy fun too!

John was so proud of his turkey!

Louis listened intently to John Grayson's blessing
