We had a great Thanksgiving weekend! Thanksgiving day was great. The food was delicious and the company - perfect. Yet again, so much to be thankful for this year.
Griffin actually said, "mommy, take my picture!" and then posed on this little piece of equipment. Love it.
We walked back to my parents' house through the greenway. It was a beautiful day.
Love the face you can see in my dad's old birdhouse.
Lindsey and Jason were home. They just got a Nikon D3000 and a 35mm 1.8 lens. We were taking similar pictures with similar settings and then comparing photos. It was fun. If you guys move closer to Charlotte we can do stuff like this more often! :)
While we were busy snapping pictures, Dana whipped up an amazing pie crust from scratch. Talk about rock star. (Photo credit to the Schuberts)
Dana is also in the double-digits of her wedding countdown so there was definitely a bunch of wedding chatter. (Photo credit to my dad)
(Lindsey and Dana are smiling, but are they really thinking - "stop being so bossy, Brooke?" I have sort of a know-it-all face here and am I really slightly pointing my finger?? I think its one of the curses of the the eldest-child-DNA... :)
More wedding surfing. Mom with her tea...getting sleepy...but hanging on.... (Seriously, how were weddings planned before the internet? :)
The boys LOVED playing Wii. I have many more pictures of the fun -- but most are full of pjs and bed-head. :)
Here is some of my favorite artwork from the season. Noah's turkey said that he was thankful for "my dad; my baby; my jammies; my lovies; my mommy" (I'm sure he just ran out of feathers for Miles!). Miles' turkey said that he was thankful for "pop and gram because they have lots of toys; my mom and dad because my dad wrestles with me and my mom snuggles with me; and my brothers Noah and Griffin. I am thankful for Noah because I play with him and I am thankful for Griffin because he hugs me." Griffin didn't have anything listed on his turkey but I'm sure he'll be full of lists next Thanksgiving. This year we ate up his multi-colored hand imprint modified to be a turkey. Its the cutest.

i just adore that picture of the three boys with griffin in the swing. there are so many you need to frame. that's up there with the three boys running to each other out in front of big daddy's.
so what kind of differences in the pictures did you get with your and lindsey's cameras?
I was going to comment on the same picture as Tricia! The one where Griffin is in the swing and the two other boys are behind him. SO SO CUTE.
