Thanksgiving

We had a nice small Thanksgiving this year at my parents house.  Overall it was great, Lily was just being a little cranky.  She has had a cough all week and yesterday Sean noticed that she has another tooth coming in, plus I think her tummy hasn't been feeling all that great.  

I decided that I wanted to try to do a few family photos that day since all of us would be looking nice for the holidays and my dad would be around to take the photos so that we didn't have to use the timer and the tripod.  I found a really cute family maternity photo pose online that I wanted to do.  It didn't turn out quite as good as the one online (I think the height difference between me and Sean is just too much), but it is still really cute.

We tried it with me standing up on a step and it helped a little bit. 

I got a great picture of Lily and Sean while we were getting ready to take the other photos.  She always has such a goofy smile when she is told to smile for pictures.

We also went to feed the fish at the lake by my parents' house that day.  It ended up being pretty cold and windy, but Lily still had a blast and I think the fish were grateful for their own Thanksgiving meal.

 I love Sean's face in this one.  It was just one of those perfectly timed photos to get a weird face.

 Lily kept wanting to eat the bread.  Probably because she only had about 3 bites of her lunch.

 She did get the hang of throwing it out to the fish after a bit.

 Lily also got to help Grandma and Papa make the mashed potatoes.

 Also, last week she got to help decorate Grandma's Christmas tree.

There are still a bunch of ornaments to add to the tree, but I am sure Lily will help over the next few weeks.  She was so proud of her work that she had to show Sean and I when we got there.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday weekend.
