As we annually do, we went to NC for Thanksgiving to be with Stephen's family. And as always, everyone was so warm and wonderful and reminding us why we love them :)
We arrived Thanksgiving Day. We got to see Nana and Papa. Nana had dinner ready for us when we got there!!
BUT I did not do my typically fabulous job of documenting it all with pics!!! (no pictures of Nana??? What??!!)
Here's 3 generations of men playing angry birds. (about the only way I could get them in a picture at all!)
Stephen and Clyde showing a tickled Soulea how to play angry birds...
The kids' 1st cousin, Mason...
Lucy and her 1st cousin, Mirzanna...
She taught Mirzanna the Virginia Reel...
Clyde and his 1st cousins, Soulea & Devonne (clyde was the LEAST cooperative for this picture :/ ).....
Iris and her 1st cousin, Mekayla...
yep, I know...they're STINKIN cute...
had to throw in the one where you can see Devonne's freckles :)...new development since last year! You have to look closely, though.
The next day we went to the reunion where we saw all the aunts and uncles....well...not ALL. some were missed :(
Here's Stephen with his Uncle Milton...
Iris with her cousin, Chloe...
Lucy with her cousin, Rebekah...
Then we did our annual hop over to Stephen's cousin, Joey's house :)
This is always fun and Joey & Tammy are always gracious enough to let us bring our brood over and stay for HOURS.
Stephen and Joey like building fires :)
Lucy and cousin, Courtney..
Lucy and Clyde being introduced to Clue by their twin cousins, Devon & Dawson. Ha! Apparently, Tammy's Dad calls them the arson boys :) cracks me up.
Love their kids!!! They're just the sweetest!!!
this is soo good..thank you for putting this up! i was so glad to see all of the family ( what there was of it! ) love to all of you and maybe next time, we will come over to joey's house, too...( we love bonfires! )
ReplyDeleteGlad you all got to come. Sorry I missed you again I was working. It is good to see how all of the kids are growing up. This means that the parents are getting older too. We don't always see it till we look at the kids and how they are growing. Wished I could have seen you guys. Love you Aunt Paula
