Thanksgiving 2010

This might seem strange, but Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I love that it is the start of the holiday season and that it is about being thankful and spending time with family. The fact that there is tons of yummy food does not hurt either.

This year was our year to spend Thanksgiving with the Clifford side of the family. We started the festivities at Grandpa and Grandma Clifford's house. Not only was the food delicious, but the company was great too. Merrick is now at the age where he enjoyed playing with Jeremy's cousin's kids and exploring the backyard.





We are also able to take the opportunity to take some family pictures. We were just missing Uncle Bryce, who is on his mission in California.




The food and the fun wore most of us out.



After a quick power nap we headed to my grandparents to see some of my family and let Merrick play with other cousins. After some time there we headed out and rounded out the day with a stop at Carolyn's cousin's house. The boys all watched James Bond and the girls looked through the Black Friday ads. Again, there was someone just Merrick's size to play with.

By the time we made it home we were all exhausted, but it was the perfect Thanksgiving full of family, food, and fun.

P.S. The pictures were taken with our new camera...I love it!
