Happy Thanksgiving!

Look who came to visit us for Thanksgiving!
That's right! My dear friend and roommate from college, Kristen, came to visit us. She is a professor at East Texas Baptist University in Marshall, TX. Like me, she is far away from family and so we were thankful that she came to spend 3 days with us over her break.

And look who Kristen brought with her!
Two very special furry friends!
The girls LOVED having Copper and Emily (Kristen's dogs) come for a visit too.
After they left, Hannah sighed sadly and said "It's awfully quiet around here now."

Our sweet friends, the Hohimers, allowed us to crash their Thanksgiving Feast-- last minute. I have great memories of eating Thanksgiving dinner with them when I was super preggo with Hannah.

The food was great and so was the company.
Here is the kid's table :)

I am feeling especially thankful for my beautiful girls and wonderful husband.
And for a Heavenly Father that loves me unconditionally.
I am blessed beyond measure.

Thank you for your hospitality. It was great to spend Thanksgiving with all of you! :) All the excitement tired Copper and Emily right out. They've both been sleeping almost nonstop since we got home.
