Thanksgiving

The day before Thanksgiving we embarked on the shortest leg of our Thanksgiving journey...STL to KC.    Thanksgiving was extra special this year because it was also Dad's 30th Birthday!  It was a busy day as you will see in the pictures, but oh so fun and the weather was beautiful-60's and sunny!! 

Adam and I are most thankful for our healthy and happy children-we feel so blessed to have them in our lives and do our best to soak up every minute.  This week I was so thankful that Adam has a job that allows him to take a week of vacation with us to really get to visit our families and not just for a weekend trip.  If you asked us, we would say Cooper is most thankful for his blanket, thumb, and trucks/diggers.  And for Laney, well she is probably most thankful for my milk (tmi?? :)).  

 Happy 1st Thanksgiving Laney Faith!

   We had lunch with the Jones'-that we were late to, of course!  Adam's sisters pulled thru with a cake and candles to celebrate him!  And we got exciting news that the baby in Aunt Tanya's belly is a GIRL!  Yay for Laney ;), we can't wait to meet her in March.

Little Laney Faith was super loved, there was always willing hands to hold and play with her! 

 After lunch we headed south to Wea with my family.  However, half of them were missing as my parents and Alli and Rusty were in Hawaii for a wedding...we were all super jealous!  Laney and Gunner got to hang out :).

 Coop was too busy all day with his cousins to slow down enough to eat, let alone take a family pic with us!

 HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think Cooper came in for about 5 seconds at Mama Kelly's house.  He was on the ranger seeing all the cows, horses and donkey and soaking up all the attention he gets!

Laney got to stay and hang out (thanks Mama, Aunt Kim and Aunt Trish) while Dad, Coop and I joined the Jones' down to the Plaza lights ceremony...more on that next!
