A Thank-full Thanksgiving

Holding true to our tradition we made the trek down to California to spend Thanksgiving with the Bugbee/Byrne side of the family.  Because this is a post about being thankful I am going to skip over the horrendous flight down here.
Thanksgiving was spent with most of the family.   The boys loved seeing everyone, especially their cousin Maddie.  Alex and she are like two peas in a pod.  They were inseparable the entire visit.  Well, until the end when the time arguing got to be more than the time getting along.  


One of our many feeble attempts to get a picture of all four grandkids.

This year I have been reminded over and over of the precious nature of life.  Despite the many ups and downs we face, I continually am reminding myself of the gifts I have been given...  my three healthy children and a healthy family.









The kids had so much fun and, luckily, the chickens even preformed a few times while we were here.


And what's Thanksgiving without a little post meal football?




Time to feed with Grandpa.


Graham kept his distance from the horses.


And when they did let out a "Nay" came running back to Mama.


Catching a lift with Grandpa back to the barn.

...And this was only day one!

We have so much to be Thankful for!
