Thanksgiving this year was particularly special because it also happened to fall on the same day my mom's parents celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary. The whole family spent the holiday in Cooper, Texas and it was a wonderful family get-together.
Happy 65th Anniversary Granny & Granddad!
We spent some wonderful time with Honey, and Gramma V and Ivy were brave enough to join in the fun. It was amazing to have so many awesome people gathered to honor my grandparents and to celebrate how much we have to be thankful for this year. I will let the pictures and videos below speak for themselves (mostly).
Hilarity:
Hiding at Honey's House:
Reli helped Honey and I rake Granny and Granddad's leaves.
Morning fun:
Aurelia loves dogs. She got friendly with Apollo, the dog across the street from my grandparents' house.
Before the holiday, Reli and I spent a very blustery day over at the Ingrams' and Reli had a blast sliding on Koruna's slide.
Aurelia and Koruna are such great playmates. Koruna endures Reli's constant desire for whatever Koruna happens to be enjoying at any given moment with as much grace as someone so young can possibly muster. We have a stash of bottled water on a low shelf at the house that Aurelia loves to play with. The other day Koruna noticed Reli's fascination and proceeded to empty the shelf of bottles, one by one, and pile them up at Reli's feet. If a bottle happened to roll away, Koruna would gently return it to the pile. Aurelia was in heaven. She is so lucky to have Koruna in her life. Aren't we all?
These days are priceless.
I am so grateful.
SIGH.
