Thanksgiving in Texas

I am thankful for so many things this holiday season...my wonderful husband, my precious baby boy, my other sweet baby boy on the way, my family, Eric's family, our amazing friends, and most importantly my Lord and Savior! I am truly a blessed woman.
We had a great time visiting my family for Thanksgiving! Here are (LOTS of) pictures from our trip.



"Howdy folks!"





The view upon arriving at GiGi and PaPa's house





I love my boys!




Of course we have to see the horses right away!

GiGi, Kaytlyn, Noah, and Mama (the sky seriously looks painted!)





Kaytlyn is showing Noah the ropes





"Pat, pat ho" (ho=horse in this situation :))





Uncle Brandon and cousin Kaytlyn





Visiting "the ranch" with GiGi and PaPa



"You promise you won't let go?"




Checking out the cows with Dada




"Dada, put on your serious face...these cows mean business."


"PaPa your funny...but you don't really sound like a cow."





PaPa showing us the newest calf



Feeding the cow video





Playing with cousin Kaytlyn





Where's Noah?





Noah may not be the best influence for sweet Kaytlyn...



Watching Ryley put on make-up




"Yeah...I don't think my daddy would approve of this..."



It's snowing! On Thanksgiving! In West Texas!




"Not really that interested, guys..."





Forcing Brandon, Kaytlyn, Noah, and Eric to take a picture in the cold




Before...



During...



After!





Fun in the snow...although Noah doesn't really think snow is all that fun.




"I'm dreaming of a white...





Thanksgiving?"





"Mmmm, snow"




Ashley, Ashland, and Nana




I am man; I build fire. (Ryan and Ryley)




PaPa carving the turkey





Master pianist




Tuning the piano... :)



Happy Birthday GiGi and Great Grandma Nana!





Foosball with the cousins




Guarding the house with Payton




Happy 80th Birthday, big PaPa!




"Cool, ribbon!"




"Cool, bag!"
