☺☺☺ I am alive... tee hee ☺☺☺

I sure hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day... I am much better now however even though I was still pretty sick we enjoyed a wonderful meal with both of my daughters and their families... I was so thankful that my daughter Denise and her family came from Florida and arrived safely at my other daughter Jennifer's house...

My Granddaughters

My TWIN Grandsons



The girls and their fellas did all of the cooking...
I did manage to make a Waldorf Salad and a Jello Delight fruit salad.





Blessed are our little ones!

I was thankful that the day was very casual and relaxing for all...
Games were played in the afternoon after dinner and dessert followed later...




We had a wonderful time while they were here and we visited a few of the
historic spots around this area... More on that later!
On to the next adventure here in Arkansas

    Donna, so glad to hear that you are on the mend. You have a beautiful family and it looks like everyone had a wonderful time. And the food looks delicious! I'm so glad that we aren't the only ones to go "overboard". It's nice not having to cook for about a week after Thanksgiving lol. Kathy

    Hi Donna. :) Your Thanksgiving looks like it was just perfect. I love to see the picture of kids praying. In my husband's family we all stand in a circle and hold hands for the prayer. I always wish I had a picture of that. Something special about it...

    So glad you are feeling better. Too many germs this year.

    Gosh, girl...sure glad you are feeling better. I have been so lucky so far this winter...no sickness. (knock on wood)

    I went to Hobby Lobby to see if they had a Chef Santa but didn't find one. Will keep looking for you, tho.

    So glad you had a good Thanksgiving.I know your Christmas will be wonderful, too.

    I've been catching up on your posts, and I'm so sorry you were sick for TG. Glad you are doing better, and glad you've enjoyed Little Rock. We lived there for several years, and I did recently return to see the Clinton Library. Will you be leaving L.R. soon? My husband has a meeting there this week (can't remember what day right now). Not sure if I'm going with him, but if I had a chance to meet you, I might try to go with him. You have such a beautiful family, and I love the photo of the children saying grace. laurie
