We spent Thanksgiving in Brighton, and we all really enjoyed ourselves. Abbey tried some mashed potatoes and enjoyed them, but in general she was most content when eating her old favorites - green beans and cheerios. Since she has started eating more finger food, she gets a little frustrated with being fed, but she also gets frustrated when she can't find her mouth quickly enough!
Ryan and I got engaged the day before Thanksgiving (5 years ago!), so the holiday holds a special place in my heart. Also, it starts the holiday season, which is my favorite time of the year. I feel so incredibly blessed this year, and it truly seems fitting to have a day to give thanks. Sometimes I get bogged down in the little things that make life stressful and frustrating, but those things pale in comparison to all of the positive things...Life is very, very good.
How sweet, Abbey called her Uncle Donnie to coordinate their attire for Thanksgiving dinner this year. He must be her favorite Uncle... hehe!!
