We are Thankful

We had a great Thanksgiving weekend. We spent it in the warm, sunny, 70 degree weather in Mesquite. That was good enough for me. It was nice to see the sun and feel some warmth for a couple of days. We stayed with Lance's mom and most of his family was able to come as well. We ate way too much food as usual and had a blast playing games and being together as a family. We did some black friday shopping, seriously black friday shoppers are crazy, I am not that into it! We were able to get most of Ryland's christmas done. We also went and saw the movie Blind Side. Very great movie, we loved it! You should all go check it out! It was such a fun weekend!
Ryland was spoiled way too much by his Aunt Marie and Aunt Lisa. He loved all the attention from them! Thanks again!

Ryland and Morgan. He enjoyed having someone close to his age to watch and play with. Morgan did great playing with Ryland. He loved it!

Grandma Jo got Ryland this most adorable Santa outfit. He is pretty much the cutest Santa out there! Adorable!

Ryland enjoying some of Grandma Jo's famous cheese pie! He loved it!

And of course there are many things we are thankful for this year. Clearly the two things I am most thankful for are
1-My husband! Lance is awesome and takes such great care of Ryland and I. I love that I can stay home everyday and watch Ryland grow up and enjoy being with him. He is such a wonderful father to Ryland. He loves him so much!

2-This little man. Seriously, how is my child almost 9 months old. He is such a doll and both Lance and I can't get enough of him everyday. We couldn't have asked for a better child!
He either does this

Or this when I point my camera at him lately. Such a great kid!

We hope you all had a great thanksgiving! Now its time to bring on Christmas!
