Happy Thanksgiving! Thursday, November 24, 2016

First, Nanaw must confess that she forgot to take pictures of Chase on Thanksgiving Day. She did take a picture at the end of the evening of all grandchildren and significant others but no Chase. So she's sharing photos of Chase from 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. She promises to do better photo-wise next year. In the morning, Mama, Chase and Nanaw made their traditional annual trip to Walgreen's. Mama fell in love with a Jack Skellington snowman so Nanaw bought it for her as one of her Christmas presents, along with a "dump" crockpot cookbook. Chase had a great time celebrating Thanksgiving, first at cousin Leah's with all of Daddy's family in the afternoon, and then at Nanaw's house. Sam came to Nanaw's house also, as did Cheyenne. Robbie's girlfriend was visiting from Tennessee. This was the big Thanksgiving dinner with all of Uncle Mike's children. There were 16 at the table. The turkey turned out well, and it was a good thing Nanaw found a 23-pound bird. Mama baked a delicious pecan pie and a gluten free pumpkin cake, and Joe's girlfriend Megan baked two delicious pumpkin pies.
