On the Saturday before Thanksgiving, we loaded up the car (Scooter too!) and headed to Springtown to visit Tony's family. It was a long 7 hour drive (usually only takes 5 but with 4 kids and a dog it took a little longer) Ha! We arrive around 4:00pm and not too much later had a yummy dinner. The kids were SO excited to finally be there!

After dinner, the kids wanted to bundle up and explore outside ....so boots and jackets went on.
Bobby took the big girls for a ride! So fun!
Climbing trees was so fun for Jillian
My pretty girls...growing up so fast!
Back inside for the night!
PaPaw reading Jo a bedtime story before she went to sleep
So sweet!
On Sunday morning, we all got dressed for church. Tami (YaYa) got the girls all new dresses and they looked so cute!
Kennedy, Josie, Jillian, Kaitlyn
Isn't this dress darling????
Love this picture!
I love how Josie and Kennedy are looking at each other in this one! :)
Waiting to leave! Josie snuggled up with PaPaw. :)
After church, we all changed clothes and headed to Tony's Aunt Earlene's house for our Thanksgiving meal. It was wonderful!

Once all the formal pics were taken, we headed in for lunch and fun.

Baby Banks (Nic and Brenae's baby)
Josie and Liam got to meet finally! They are 4 days apart.
Baby Banks started to cry at one point and this was Josie's face....so worried. She even started to cry herself. She then asked to hold the baby. It was so so sweet.
She was sooo proud to hold the baby.
Tony's family also had a little surprise set up for me! I was shocked! My 40th birthday is coming up soon and they decorated and got a cake for me. Soooo fun!!
Crowns for the girls!
Cake time!
Isn't the cake so pretty!?!!
The set up was beautiful!
After staying at Earlene's until about 4:30, we headed back home and bundled up to have a cook out.
They had a fire, hot dogs and smores for all of us!

Josie loved all this activity!
Smores time!
Oh, Jillian!! My sweet tooth girl!
Josie was so cute and happy during all of this! She wanted to try a marshmallow... but ended up not liking it. She sure looked cute trying it though!
Snacks!
Josie sat with PaPaw for a long time. She talked with him, laughed with him and just showed off! She also went around and told everyone she loved them (and signed it too!) about 50 times. It was adorable.
YaYa and the big girls
Once we headed in, Josie was still having a blast.She sat with Uncle Tracy (Tony's brother) and also Uncle Lee!
What a fun Thanksgiving day! Wow!
