Thanksgiving "09"

(Weston)

Thanksgiving is always a busy, busy time when you live out of state and go home and fit in everybody's get together's. It's nothing like Christmas time and all the get together's you fit in then, but still it's a busy time. But we would not trade it for anything. Spending time with our family's is what the holidays are all about. We were actually in Bama the whole week of Thanksgiving this year, which meant I got to fit in some shopping. We (Me, Granna, and my Granmother) took Jolee to the Galleria to see all the Christmas lights and ride the carousal, and she absolutely loved it! We just had an all around wonderful week!



Also that week we got to spend several days with Weston, which Jolee and I loved! Oh my gosh, he is getting so BIG and he is so FUNNY! He and Jolee had a blast together.


Weston and Jolee playing dog. They took turns, putting the leash on each other and leading each other around, it was hilarious!



How sweet are they together. Love this picture!!

I did learn that week, that there is quiet a bit of a difference between little girls and boys. For example: At one point, Jolee and I were snuggled in the recliner watching TV and I look over and Weston is jumping off of the dog cage. At that point, I looked at Jolee and said...Oh no, I'm afraid we are going to have a rude awakening when your brother gets here. Weston is very active, but so very loving too.



Speaking of being loving....Weston giving Brennan kisses!



This was on the way back, from the Ford's Thanksgiving get together. She was exhausted and had played her little heart out. Sleeping with her is... Handy Ba Dandy (you would call him Raggedy Andy, but that deserves a whole post in itself) and Alice, who poor girl has had the flu for about 3 weeks now (clearly her mother, didn't get her the flu shot)!


Cousins Alex, Abbie, and Jolee all bundled up and ready to go outside and play with Grandpa! The Key's Thanksgiving get together was the quietest it has been in years. Only 3 out of the 13 grand kids/great grandkids where there this year. We sure missed everyone, but enjoyed the food and fellowship with the ones who where there.



Granna and Jolee playing in the sandbox, enjoying some "play" time. Mom came after Thanksgiving for a couple of days, to help bring some furniture down and also help me clean out some closets, 5 to be exact! Boy, did we work HARD! Actually, Granna worked really hard. I could not have done it with out her. So we are making progress on making room for Brennan, to come and join us!!
