I hope that all of you who were celebrating Thanksgiving enjoyed your day. We certainly did!
We had my whole family here, which includes my Dad and stepmom, 1 brother, 2 sisters and families, Laura and Aaron and girls, and Heather and Andrew. That makes 22 people including baby Ruby.
Here's a few pictures of our day.
Lots of good food! No one left hungry. :)
After eating, some people hung around in the family room to watch the game.
Some people were more into it than others!
My niece Arianna loved holding Ruby.
She also had fun playing with Alaina.
One of the sweetest sights of the day was seeing my Dad sleeping in the chair, holding his sleeping great granddaughter.
I've been so blessed to have this wonderful family and it's certainly something to be thankful for!
love your pictures!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful family you have. The photo of your dad with Ruby melts my heart!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a good time was had by all. Precious little baby all dressed in her pink.
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE that picture of your dad with Ruby!! 22 people! I would not have room for that many in my little house!
ReplyDeleteI am so, so glad you all had a nice family gathering for Thanksgiving; such a wonderful family you have, Mari.
ReplyDeleteI agree the photo of your dad and sweet Ruby is a treasure for sure. :)
So happy that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteWhat a blessing family is, and you have a lot of "blessings" to be grateful for **smile**.

That photo of your dad and his great-grand is a keeper, for sure! I love that you put up tables so everyone could eat together! I really miss our big family holidays. You are so blessed to be able to have everyone together!
ReplyDeleteYour family certainly fills a long table! Looks like a wonderful family get-together. Ruby is adorable; I loved the photos of her with your niece and dad.
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine how much food it took to feed so many people :) I'm sure you all had an amazing time together :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful family - and a lot of mouths to feed!! Lol
ReplyDeleteThat photo of your Dad and Ruby is beyond precious.
thanks for sharing and God bless sweet Gal. xo
Loved all your pictures Mari. So great to have everyone together. Busy day for you!
ReplyDeleteHi Mari! You sure had a bunch for Thanksgiving! What a great looking clan :) Ruby looks bigger already, what a beautiful little girl.
ReplyDeleteWe had my sister, niece and my daughter's family staying with us. It was a busy house for a few days, but I sure did love it. My brother hosted the dinner, so all I had to do was bring potatoes. Deal!
Hope you were able to rest a bit this weekend?
Blessings,
Ceil
I'm glad you all had such a great time. xx
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice holiday! You had a big crowd. It's great to see everyone enjoying time together and that photo of Grandpa and Ruby is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteIndeed it is. Your house looks so cozy and comfortable. Merry Christmas! xoxo
ReplyDeleteYou certainly are blessed to have all your family living near so they can come for the holidays. Everyone looks so comfortable....no shoes!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great crowd! We had thirteen of us, but the adults were way out-numbered by the kids. I decided I kind of look forward to the day when the kids get older and we can actually have reasonable conversations instead of refereeing kids all of the time!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed, a blessing for sure. That was quite a long table!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful pictures! Looks like so much fun! =D
ReplyDeleteMari, thank you for visiting my blog today and for your sweet comments. I loved seeing your big family together around a very laden Thanksgiving table. There is little as special as time spent with the most special people.
