Pictures from Thanksgiving

So I usually like taking pictures. (What??  You know that?  Right)  But actually kept my camera pretty much tucked away for our Wednesday night family meal.  I did break it out at the end, to get a couple of quick pictures of Henry and Cici, but really the night felt more complete with us just talking and spending time together and not attempting to document every second.  Here are a couple of the pictures I snapped at the end:


They weren't really interested in sitting still for a picture... and I am not sure there was any time in the night this would have gone better anyway, so maybe it was better I didn't try.

I mean, unless it's a silly picture.  They are always up for silly pictures


We also took this one of our little family, which  I adore

And this one of Boo's family,which cracks me up.

Now at my Father in Laws, it was a different story.  It's like I can see Nick's deep sigh he tries to hold in when I pull out the camera... but LIFE MUST BE DOCUMENTED!


We made several attempts at a cousin shot... and got a couple of pretty good ones of the three boys

seriously... with the sweetness

And then with this one of Henry and Nieem, which I will love until the end of time. 


Chris and Nicole

This one also cracks me up

Me and Candice

Before the feast

My heart might explode from how sweet he is here

So good of Candice, so silly of Henry

family

The classic American family.. board games, wine and Black Friday ads...

All in all, it was a good Thanksgiving. Hard at times, but very nice at times too.  We love our family, and love being together.  We are forever thankful they are part of our lives.

**We very much missed Nana and Grandpa this year.  I don't think I have mentioned it on here yet, but they actually moved to Florida several weeks ago.  A life of fun in the sun for them!  But we are a little selfish so we are sad they are gone, especially during the holidays.   Looking forward to our next visit, and our first trip to the BEACH to see their new place :)
