We survived Ella's first Thanksgiving with 3 different celebrations. There were many smiles, squeals, funny looks, and of course a few cries...oh, wait, this is supposed to be about Ella though, right? She did a few of those too. Ha!
Here is a photo journal of the weekend...
First Celebration:
Aunt Becca's House with my mom's side of the family
Oh, geez...they've got that camera out again!
Ella enjoying her thanksgiving dinner
Sue-Sue preparing the fruit salad
Mom preparing some food!
Colby had to join Ella under the activity arch...she just loves him!
Four generations
Uncle Randy & Sue-Sue talking to Ella
Second Celebration:
Our house with Lee's family
The kids table
Adults table that was soon filled with tons of food!
Before everyone arrived, I walked through the living room and it all looked so serene and homey with the fire lit in the fireplace and Maggie looking all composed. That soon changed!
Grandmomma Bonnie, Ella, and her favorite rattle
Ella having a great time with Lucas!
Uncle Kevin teaching the boys how to play poker...it was an intense game!
Everyone wanted a chance to hold Ella. Here is Jacob with an "okay, but leery" Ella.
Jackson with a "ticked off" Ella.
Lucas with a "I've had enough and there better not be another person to hold me" Ella!
We had our third celebration at my Aunt Donna's house and it was lots of fun. We didn't get any pictures there, but we will be sure to at Christmas when we go! All in all it was a great holiday! I hope everyone else had a great holiday weekend!
