Thanksgiving 2013

Somehow I forgot to post about our wonderful Thanksgiving.

And of course I need to post Thanksgiving before I can post Christmas!

We were blessed this year to have OUR house full of family. My parents and siblings came to Texas and we spent a delightful holiday together. 

My dad came a few days early and happily watched our rambunctious boys while this mama worked a couple of extra days. {Thanks again Dad!}

And then the rest of the family came out the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.

I felt like all I did was work {I think I worked 3 1/2 days while they were here which is about 2 1/2 more than normal. I've been spoiled with my one day a week!} but we had so much fun!

We played at Noah's, played video games, entertained and were entertained by the boys, went to Six Flags, ate a delicious dinner, laughed, and enjoyed just being together.

And I am such a mom. I seriously loved having our little tiny apartment bursting with family and having everyone together for Thanksgiving. 

My heart was so full.  

We are incredibly blessed.

They tried celery, which they of course loved.

And were exhausted part way through dinner.
