A Very Thankful Thanksgiving

We celebrated another Florida style Thanksgiving this year. I've decided that's the best kind. Steve smoked a turkey, we baked a turkey and just hung out while we prepared the meal.

Nate with the bare minimum. Turkey, rolls and ketchup.

Nate and Kate saved this seat for Paw-Paw. They seriously would not allow anyone to even think about sitting there.

Allison was one of the biggest eaters of the day. She's a big fan of Thanksgiving.

With this beautiful weather you have to sit outside and enjoy Thanksgiving meal.

Mace waits patiently these kids to drop something.

It was so festive with the falling leaves.

The night before Thanksgiving, Paw-Paw and Steve put the trampoline up. We took it down in Alabama and never put it back up until now. Glad we did because that was a huge hit with everyone, young and "not as young."

Of course Joe gets on there and bounces the kids all over the place. He scared the girls off, but Nate decided to stay. Here he is flying though the air.

 Lexi was more child friendly.

 Lady was extremely child friendly. :-)

 Nate doesn't allow for any excuses. Even Paw-Paw had to take his turn bouncing Nate.

  Then Joe finally got his chance to go nuts on the trampoline without any kids.

I think it was his plan all along to scare the kids into rushing off the trampoline when they see him coming.

 He's just a big kid. Always has been.

Nate played 3DS while Allison hung out with him.

First Thanksgiving with Little Mack

 He stole Mace's bed. He definitely does not respect his doggie elders.

 Brothers.

Hope everyone else had a Thanksgiving filled with as much fun and excitement as this one! We have a lot to be thankful for!
