2015 Thanksgiving Recap

I'm trying to get caught up with the blog, so you'll see some old posts coming up from late 2015. And this would be one of them. Thanksgiving in Deer Park. We traveled down and dropped the kiddos off and that's when Shawn and I headed to Gruene for a couple of days. We came back and spent the rest of the week with family and it was a nice time.

The kids stayed with Chip and Peggy first and then went to my mom's house. Here is Grandma on the floor with the kiddos. All smiles.

We visited my Dad and Cony one afternoon. It is always great visiting with him.

 Maebry can always find something to get into!

Dinner at Texas Roadhouse with the fam. It was either Allyson or Jase's pick, they love it there!

We ate at my mom's house on Thanksgiving day. The food was great and we also made several non-dairy compliant sides for Jase!

 Me and my Bae!

Sisters. The main cooks of the holiday! They both can whoop up some mean meals!

This was Aunt Susan's first time to meet Miss Maebry. You can say they hit it off!

Sweet boys shared the couch after a tasty meal.

Maebry never wants to leave the table. Her nickname should be Miss Piggy! Nanny was stealing some sugar or trying to get a bite!

We visited with Shawn's family that evening and got to meet David and Kayla's new addition: Luke! He is such a cutie! And Ryan is always so sweet!

Mae and Grandpa hanging out at the table.

Uncle Shawn getting some lovin' from Luke!

PawPaw is always a good camper! Here he is getting his hair fixed by Ally. She has been using him as a client for years! #memories

Before heading out of town, we were able to catch up with some of our friends on Black Friday! The kids really enjoyed playing with their friends.

And it was so nice to see one of my besties in person! Miss her!

MawMaw came in from Louisiana before we left and this was also her first time to meet Mae. This is her great-grandma. Precious.

A couple of days later me and the kiddos were on the road again. We met Chip and Peggy to pick up our dogs. So we have had 2 dogs for 12 years or so, well for the past year our black lab, Jet, has been with a family member and they recently moved, so Jet is officially back with us. The kids are super excited to have him back! Since we were already picking up Jet, we went ahead and left Hank in Deer Park for a couple of days and they met us with both dogs. Road trip with 4 kids and 2 dogs!! #crazy

Jet is an outside dog. Shawn built him an awesome little home in the backyard. I mean he has cedar shingles on his roof! When it is too cold for him outside, he has been bundling up in the garage with a heater! Sweet boy.
