With a Thankful Heart... Part 1

We have thoroughly enjoyed our Thanksgiving break. I honestly think this was one of my favorite Thanksgivings. I think because we had the chance to spend a little bit of time with a lot of the people we love. Also, Brian was off the whole holiday break, too. That never happens! I am so thankful for my family, immediate and extended. I'm also thankful for the friends that are more like family! I'm going to break up our Thanksgiving outings in a few post so I don't bombard you with pictures all at once!
Cothern Thanksgiving was a lot of fun- filled with lots of laughs and good food! We celebrated the Sunday before Turkey Day. The kids love seeing their uncles and aunts. Of course, the doggies too! Dolce and Ozzy are the perfect size for Jayce and Jadyn. Poor little things just succumb to Jadyn- they know they can't escape her love!! Jack's the big doggie in the back, he's a big baby!! Love my family.

Thanksgiving morning we try to get together to play some football before we gobble, gobble all day!! It is so much fun! We only had 13 people this year (including kids) but it was still a blast.We are going to try and start Ham Bowl for Christmas! haha
Turkey Bowl 2010!!!! Dalton was missed! He had HS football practice.


Brian, Ronnie and Austin warming up

Mine and Jayce's shadows

We looked up and there were a gazillion dogs running at us, with no leashes. Luckily, they were all so sweet!

 
Half Time- Jayce, Jadyn and Caleb
                              
                                         Half -Time ( I think I was telling my team to step it up and Block!!) haha
                                         and the other team was laughing at my competitiveness!

After the game (minus Jeremey) 2 1/2 hrs later
 We are holding up L's or W's. Ya know, for winners and losers. I usually go around pointing at the losers :) and rant losers,losers- Ima' winner, winner! LOL! Well..... not this year. I'm representing the L's!! But, in typical loser fashion..... I'm blaming MJ!! hahaha!
Can't wait to play again! Great way to start off Thanksgiving!
(just playin MJ)

WOW that looks like so much fun and as much as I hate sports I am considering organizing a game myself now. Such a great tradition and wonderful opportunity to make special memories. Oh and I love the shadow picture.
