Neighbors' Thanksgiving -- Part II

This truly was one of the best Vacations ever! It was just so good to spend time with family! I love the laughter and conversations that fill the room and it's so fun to tell old stories and share our lives with one another! I guess I sound all sappy, I am just THANKFUL for family that loves me and my husband and children. I am THANKFUL that we could share in old memories as well as make new ones. I am THANKFUL that we are all so blessed in our lives, and that God has given us all so much, even beyond material values. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays and I am excited that I get to spend another gathering with more family here in San Angelo this week to celebrate all that we are THANKFUL for!

Oh yeah, and we didn't have as smooth a flight and trip back as we would have liked, but it is already something we can laugh at now! MK had a mini meltdown when our plane was running a little late and she needed nurse! She also had a mini meltdown when she couldn't go to sleep. There were some other things but I will spare y'all any complaining. We are just glad we are safely home. Some really nice people helped us get our stuff off the plane and encouraged us that we really did have great children. I appreciated that.

I have a mega load of pictures to share...I tried to limit them! ;o) Here ya go...
