We had another great Thanksgiving full of food, love and fun. We had a new addition this year (my niece's first Thanksgiving) and boy was she the life of the party! I think she enjoyed our loudness, right Emma? ;) I always make a schedule to ensure when food gets prepared to avoid eating late and having to use the oven to heat up food but every year we fail. Every year we spend too much time cooking, talking and laughing that food gets cold and must be heated in the microwave and oven before we eat. But it doesn't matter because we're together and that is really all that matters in the end. Oh and my sister's mac and cheese, obviously.

  1. So much fun Faith, I've said it lots of times that even though we don't celebrate it outside of the USA I really love the idea of Thanksgiving and wish we did! What is bad about taking time with family to realise how thankful you are for one another?

  10. Oh how I love seeing pictures of your family. You are such a close knit group and I love that.

    Your niece is a cutie pie and all that hair.

    Your nephew has grown so much and is so handsome and a total jokester. Fits right in this family :).

    Sean in his little African outfit = love. He needs to do that more often
