This year we got to spend Thanksgiving with Brian's family. We went to the Bowles' house Wednesday after Brian got home from work and spent the night there so that we could just wake up and celebrate the whole day together. We ate dinner at Wade and Wendy's with just our immediate family. The whole, gianormous Bowles family had Thanksgiving dinner at the Church near Wade's parents house, but he said that since his family is expanding, he was just going to have dinner with his family at his house. I'm actually really glad he did! Wendy made sure that the food was delicious and warm and that the table was set with the nice china and a lace table cloth - it just felt more festive and celebratory and was less noisy than if we had joined them at the church. We really enjoyed our Thanksgiving dinner and then we meet them at the church for the talent show. The girls did a tap dance to the Chipmunks Christmas song, Wendy sang with Amanda at the piano and Wade sang with all of his brothers. Ollie joined the girls for the tap dance while they practiced at home, but I kept him off stage for their actual performance. He was way cute dancing with them! We had a great Thanksgiving and hope you all did as well!

We got to see the Matthews grandchildren for Thanksgiving and we are way excited to see the Bowles, Peterson, and Derek Oliver granchildren for Christmas. Cute pictures and adorable little boys.
