thanksgiving week

Although we missed traveling to be with B's fam in Virginia for Thanksgiving, we enjoyed a great 5 days in Atlanta with the Sellers side (with a quick day trip to Chattanooga thrown in too!)...

We started with our traditional alphabet thankful list on the ride there.  As the kids know the drill now, they have so much fun with it and literally say every one with an exclamation mark in their voices.  This year, there was lots of "hey Mom!  Is there anymore room on letter ?!"  Love this time with them so much :))

Slade and Jessica were incredibly kind to have us for so many days and Bebe stayed with us there too!  She was ready with birthday presents for the girls when we arrived and Greer enjoyed decorating us all with the wrapping after opening ;))

The following day was Megan and Nathan's birthday!  We were so glad to be there and enjoy a fun cousin lunch and then park time to celebrate :)

Back at S&J's, lots of playtime and cooking with Bebe :)

And B and I headed to Chatt to see our Owens buds.  It was such a great visit and opportunity to catch up and enjoy time while all 6 Massey/Owens kids were with family.  Although we didn't get a great pic of us all, I snuck a couple of snapshots of the boys.  So so thankful for them and their friendship...can't describe how much we love them :))

More fam time...

And found these two this way and overheard Garner ask "So, what are you thankful for, Lily?"  Made me tear up to see her 'writing' their thankful list...

Uncle Slade and Gehrig in their happy place :)

And the girls with some fancy milk

Sweetness watching Charlie Brown Thanksgiving :))

And Baby Collier!  So exciting to meet Britt and Margaret's sweet new little one...we were all so smitten from the start :))

Fam pics of my siblings...truly a gift to all be together...

All the grands...

And our whole crew.  So so much to be thankful (and silly!) for :))

Greer is such a sweet little mama...caught her taking care of Stone as we got things ready...

Thanksgiving dinner time...Jessica has a great kitchen for it!

The Pouloses brought supplies for us to share things about each other.  It was a favorite time of the whole visit :)

After-dinner snuggles and shenanigans with the cousins...

And these cuties in their matching vests...they are super sweet buds :)

Afterwards, we headed to Britt & Margaret's for a day or two to officially visit baby Collier and his fam...we are so glad that they are Georgians once again and that we get to see them more.  So much fun! :)

So so blessed to have great time with family...we don't take it for granted and especially appreciate them all hosting our Massey crew as the only ones now not in town.  Love you all so much and thankful indeed!
