I know that Thanksgiving was almost a week ago, but I have been working like crazy and have not had the time to post. I really enjoyed spending time with my side of the family and just had to share the cute pictures. My brother and his family and my family went to my parents house for the holiday. Then we proceeded to Fresno to spend Thanksgiving at my Grandmothers house. I love being there. My grandmother makes an awesome meal. The night before, the women usually get together and make a huge vat of stuffing (or dressing as it is called in my family)that could feed twenty people. The table cloths and napkins are ironed. I used to polish the silver serving set when I was a child, but that tradition was stopped when I went to college. On Thanksgiving, the men sit and watch football, while the women set the table. We have our meal at around noon.We sit at a very formal table with china and crystal and just talk. A lot of times, politics comes up. I personally hate talking politics so I just listen to everyone else. This tradition has been going on since before I was born and I am proud to take part of it. . I don't know what we are going to do when my grandmother is no longer with us. It won't be the same. After being at Grandmother's house we usually make the 10 min trip to my other grandparents house for more food. This year my family had to visit my other grandparents the day before because I was blessed to work Thanksgiving night and had to drive back home after lunch. The holidays in my family and in Eric's family have always been about family spending time together and I cherish that tradition.

I love this picture of cousin Caden holding Ty.
Daisy loves to sit on our laps, but she has not figured out how she could do that with Ty.
