So Much To Be Thankful For

We made a trip to Jackson last week for Thanksgiving. Dan was off Wednesday through Friday, so we were able to make a nice long trip out of the week. This is definetly one of the perks for working for Mississippi State! Will, of course, had a great time and was given so much attention that I think he is spoiled for good now! :) It is really cool to see the special bond that Will has formed with his grandparents. He is so blessed to have four wonderful grandparents and six great grandparents as well as lots of aunts and uncles who love him so much! This past week, Nonnie (or Goggie as Will lovingly calls her) got the special treatment and the rest of us took back seat to her. He even passed me up for a hug to find Nonnie and give her a hug first! HA!
Thanksgiving dinner was at Nonnie and Papaw's house so everyone came over on Thursday. Amma and Papa, Krista and Danny, Frank, Katrina, Chase, Alex, and Emma, and Missy and Sara were all there! It was a lot of fun with a lot of yummy food! Will took a special liking to Emma and followed her wherever she went. If Emma skipped into a room, Will was right behind her trying to skip too! It was great!
On Friday morning, Nonnie and I went shopping. We didn't make it up with the early birds, but we still found lots to buy and lots of deals!
We also got to spend lots of time with our friends since we had the long week/weekend. We went over to the Kirks house on Saturday for dinner and to catch up with everyone. Miriam, Kristin, Natalie, and Jesse were there and it was great to see everyone. Will and Emily Kay got to spend some time playing together too and that is always great!
As I said in the title of this blog, we have so much and so many people to be thankful for! I love you all!
