The absence of writing is not due to a lack of little moments to be absorbed, but rather to too many of them! I have found myself taking in Thanksgiving, and the excitement of the changing seasons and all that it brings. I think I will let the pictures speak for themselves....smiles, laughter, time with cousins, only, I didn't get enough pictures with all the other family members: Grandma, Uncle Brandon, Craig, Lolo, Kelsey, Ally, Chris....
it was very special to be in Grandmama's house together for the first Thanksgiving without her. We used familiar silver, cooked in her kitchen, made crafts, went for walks at East Beach, drove to see the erosion at Wasque, played football on the lawn, and enjoyed all of the little moments as a family with a lot for which to be thankful.

 Happy Thanksgiving....Paisley's array of hats that came from school.

 Paisley learned a lot about Pilgrims in school and she was thrilled with the idea that drove and were near where the Pilgrims had once been.

                            Who doesn't love making sand angels...and then giving them a face

                                           Peeking through Allyson's vest on the beach.

 Although the plates weren't really eaten, there were tons of smiles, laughs, and good memories

 The ferry boat was very exciting! We stayed outside on the deck, despite the chilly air--we soaked in the sun!
