giving thanks.

We had a great Thanksgiving! Busy, but great! We were able to spend time with MM's and Wes's family - and since we have typically had a rule that we don't travel on Thanksgiving, it was nice to be closer to some family to visit with this year. We still missed Charleston and our fried turkey in the driveway - but this year was nice.

Charlotte on the other hand didn't care a bit where she was or who she was visiting with... as long as there was food!! We discovered the girl LOVES Thanksgiving food! She always had a piece of stuffing in one hand and her fork in the other, as to not waste any time! She was also introduced to Mama Maggie's chocolate chip dessert (a family favorite)... a member of the clean plate club all weekend! Now - on to the next holiday!
