This was our first Thanksgiving spent with both of our parents.  Josh's parents finally moved back to the DFW metroplex from New York after being up there for 13 years.  As sad as we were to see them leave Campbell, NY, we were also excited to have them so close.  Now we don't have to  spend an entire day traveling and sitting in airports to see them. They now live a mere 20 minutes away.

Thanksgiving is always about family and togetherness.  I LOVE all of my family and am thankful that we all have each other.  I love watching the kids with both sets of grandparents and I especially love to see them with their Aunt and Uncle. The weekend before Thanksgiving, we drove up to see Grandma and Grandpa Holding and Aunt Susan and Uncle Marion.  It was a long drive, but with Mom and Dad Holding in the car with us, it didn't seem as long.  Of course, it probably seemed like an eternity for  Mom who got stuck next to Sabrina most of the way.

Here's a great family picture of us with Grandma & Grandpa Holding.  Unfortunately, we missed Jackie again on this trip.



Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Holding, we now have a table to seat our entire family for Thanksgiving dinner. 



Back home with our blended family...





And...what better way to spend Thanksgiving than to be dancing with your Papa.  Papa and his girls!

 

I thank God everyday for the wonderful family that we have!
