Thankful for Family

 This Thanksgiving we had a special blessing! Our family came down to see us. They rented a beach house and we all got to enjoy a relaxing week by the ocean. We got to play Putt-Putt, souvenir shop, go deep sea fishing, kayak on the ocean, hunt for shells, and shop like crazy on Black Friday. 
That week we were thankful for
 Lots of boy cousin time
Sweet Uncle love
 Good cooks in the kitchen
 This sweet baby girl
 Having a cousin to help knock out a loose tooth
 Good deals and late night fun
 Lots of outside playtime
And a beautiful Family by God's beautiful landscape.

Daddy's back :-)

This post is a little late because our life has been a little busy :-) Troy had to travel overseas for work for a little while in October/ November. We missed him a lot and the kids were excited to pick him up from the airport. After a 24 hour flight, his plane delayed out of Atlanta and so we waited at the airport. When he finally landed the kids were right by the gate, but we couldn't find daddy. That is because he looked like this....

Yikes! I though someone from Duck Dynasty was walking up to us! When we saw his eyes we recognized him, but the kids wanted his hat off. Then Sam said "I think your hair turned Gray!" (his hair was pretty long too!) We are glad to have daddy home and we are glad that he shaved and got a haircut :0) So thankful he was safe while he was away from us and that our friends here were so helpful.
