Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a little different this year. Bob had to work all day (of course) so it was just me and Gracie hanging out watching the parade all morning since we couldn't go down to central Arkansas to visit the family. Mom and dad came into town Thursday afternoon and stayed the weekend. Bob's parents and his sister Angela also came on Saturday and we decided to celebrate then. This was the first time I have ever made Thanksgiving dinner so I was very glad to have mom here to help...not that either of us knew too much about cooking turkey. Grandma made the trip to Texas early this year so she wasn't here to cook us up good stuff. After two whole days of cooking, we realized why we only do this once a year (we only had to call grandma about 17 times to ask her questions)! It was very fun trying to work with our frozen turkey (that had been thawing for 4 days) and finish things in time for dinner...luckily we ate a little late! So, for whatever reason I did not take pictures of our dinner but me and Bob had our Christmas card photo shoot which was eventful...
Here are just a few...

Not bad but Gracie wouldn't get in the picture... 

We both look constipated here... 

Me laughing at trying to get Gracie to mind...Bob being aggravated! 

Gracie sniffing my butt...

This was the winner even though I look like a cow and Bob thinks he looks gay!

It was very eventful needless to say!
I am hoping our professional shoot goes better next weekend!
Overall it was a great Thanksgiving even though we were missing several key players!
