Thankful

I have never had more to be thankful for. This Thanksgiving tops all! It is the first one as a family, not just a couple. How blessed we are to have Ryan in our life. I was thankful last year for Chris, and now we get to share the joy of Ryan together. I am grateful. Last year we found out we were pregnant two days after Thanksgiving. We were shocked and nervous and excited. We had no idea how much better our lives were going to be 8 months later.

Along with Ryan we have many other people in our lives that we are thankful for. We were lucky enough to get to celebrate Thanksgiving with all of our families this year! We had an early Thanksgiving with Gran, Pawpaw, Aunt Meredith and Eliana (unfortunately Ryan had a blow out diaper that distracted me and no pictures were taken). We drove to Ada, Oklahoma on Thanksgiving and celebrated with Grandma, Papa, Uncle Zach, Aunt Bethany and ALL of Grandma Peg's family! On the Saturday after Thanksgiving we went to Unc Unc, Aunt Mis and Aunt Tauri's house to celebrate with Mamaw, Grandpa, Dustin and Claudya! It was so much fun to get to see all of the people that we are thankful for. I am so glad that Ryan has so many people who love her.

Thank you Mom and Dad for all you do. I love you. So does Ryan.

Two beauties!

Proof that Dustin gave Ryan a bottle! (and did a good job!)

I see piano lessons in the future....maybe her Unc Unc will teach her!
