Last Thanksgiving post

 Ron is our turkey carver...he likes to be a bit dramatic when he starts to 'carve the bird'.... He always says the same thing, "This is SO foul!" 

 

William was absorbed in the football game while we were getting dinner ready...

 "The bird"

 After dinner, we were trying to decide where to take a group shot.  Outside?  It definitely had the best light.  However, the grass was wet...and Saddie wasn't real keen on the outside location...it would have been a bit of a hassle with all the wet feet...

 There was pretty good light coming in through the windows...so the hearth became the location... My big boys posed for me so I could check out the light...

 Emerson was getting 'all duded up' with his hair slicked back and his cool shirt!

 We started gathering for the picture...

 We probably took about 10 shots before we decided on having the big boys stand behind Lindsey and Donnie... plus, it took about 10 shots for everyone to be looking the right direction...

 

It's so important (to me) to always take a group shot.  You never know how the family will be different the next time we're together.  We're missing a lot of our family...but this is who we had together for Thanksgiving, 2013!
