ThAnKsGiViNg!

I LOVE Thanksgiving! It is such a fun holiday, and I love the time we get to spend with family. I'm always mindful of the things that I'm so grateful for, but for some reason...even more so this time of year! I'm so thankful for my sweet husband Ben. I love that guy more than life itself, and am so lucky that he's mine! I'm grateful for my little ZoZo. Oh, what would we ever do without her? She's what make life worth living some days! I love her big hugs, her "I love you Mommy's", her kisses on the cheek, and just her overall sweet nature. She's so loving and caring, and I just can't imagine my world without her! I love my family. I'm so grateful we are all as close as we are, and enjoy all the times we have together! I love all my friends, and am blessed to have so many! I don't know what I'd do without my girlfriends! I could go on and on because really, everything I have I'm SO grateful for!

{The 2 I'm most grateful for in my life!}


We had such a great Thanksgiving this year! We were able to spend Thanksgiving Day with my family at Grandma Lewis's house. She always does such a great job at hosting this huge meal. Everyone pitches in, and brings their "traditional" part of the dinner. I brought Green Bean Casserole...mmm, one of my favorite parts of dinner! It was all so yummy, and we stuffed ourselves full! We then played a couple games of Scrabble, and just hung out and talked! Ben was able to get in some football, and a nap! That's what this day is all about...being with family, eating lots of yummy food, watching football, and taking a much needed nap after all that turkey! This year was Zoey's first time ever trying the actual meal, and what do you know...she loved it! She ate turkey and mashed potatoes and gravy, and tried one bite of green beans...but wasn't too big on those! It was so great to see her enjoy all the good food with us! I sure love Thanksgiving!

Grandma & Grandpa with Zoey. They just love her, and get such a kick out of her! Zoey loves them so much too, and is always asking me "How is Grandma Lewis doing?"!

Playing some Scrabble! I kicked butt both times! MODED!

(I forgot my camera...I know, I know, I NEVER do that, so I had to steal a few pics off of my sisters blog! Thanks Kim!)
