Thanksgiving 2013

We had a great Thanksgiving this year!  We started off the day with some chocolate chip pancakes and a little lesson in being thankful.  Not sure she got it....

Then we headed to the Woodlands brunch.  While we waited for Uncle Drew and Aunt Jenny to arrive, Olivia entertained everyone by literally doing laps around the house!

Then we went to brunch.  We were so happy Uncle Drew and Aunt Jenny were able to come into town this year!



Olivia was really good - she ate all her food and then took turns "stealing" different people's seats and generally being silly!



After a nap, she opened up her Boogie Monster legs and CD from Uncle Drew and Aunt Jenny and we all had a dance party.



It's important to keep your energy up while dancing.

Then we headed to Humble for dinner with my family.

Olivia was over taking pictures at this point.....

Olivia helped Mimi get the food ready.

The best part of having aunts is wearing all their awesome clothes, huh?  Olivia has gotten very girly lately, constantly commenting on everyone's clothes, jewelry or shoes.  So, when she saw Aunt Naz's boots, she had to give them a try!

Unfortunately, Olivia didn't even make it through dinner.  I think the excitement of the day was too much for her and by about 6:45 she was crying to go to sleep.  But the rest of us enjoyed a delicious meal!
 But, luckily we spent the night at Mimi and Grandpa's house and the next morning, she was back to her old silly self!  We got in lots of playing and cuddle time!





And had a yummy breakfast of kolaches, donuts and breakfast smoothies


It was a wonderful day and a nice time to be thankful for family and this wonderful life we have!
