Every year it seems we are so blessed and have so much to be thankful for. We know all our blessings come from Him and this year we had even more to celebrate on Thanksgiving. We have a healthy, beautiful baby girl which is the biggest gift!
We had a great Turkey Day 2009 at my parents, Meme and Gramps. We were spoiled and didn't have to bring anything except Taryn! My mom cooked a delicious meal and as usual the desserts were my favorite! Next year Taryn and I will be in full swing to make some treats. We even had to take a picture of dessert to send to Aunt Tiff since they couldn't make it up this year (we missed them tons)! Evan's dad made the trip out from Ruidoso, NM to spend the holiday week with us. This was only his second time to Dallas and it was great to have him here for a few days, especially since he got to meet his first Granddaughter! Taryn pretty much slept away her entire 1st Thanksgiving. In a way it was kind of a blessing because because we were all able to sit down to eat together and no one had to attempt to bounce her bouncy seat while eating (much harder than it sounds) and trying to keep her happy. I thought for sure she'd wake up when we were done to get me out of doing the dishes and cleaning up but nope, she slept right on through dessert too!
