Happy Thanksgiving!



I know this is late...but better late than never right?

We celebrated her first Thanksgiving. We went to Caleb and Ashley's new apartment and had the most amazing Thanksgiving dinner to date! We had a deliciously moist turkey, skillet fresh green beans with mushrooms and prosciutto ham, crazy delicious dressing with carrots and prosciutto (loving dressing was a first for me), twice baked potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes with cinnamon and other yummy spices, cream biscuits, ambrosia salad and Grandma Hanson's rolls (my contribution). It was a great dinner with family.



Beckett was fascinated with Abigail. It was quite adorable. Here they are comparing finger and toe sizes.



Then we went up to Grandma's house to introduce Abigail to my cousins Rebecca and her beau Scott and KK and Rowan. Uncle Dick, Aunt Susan, Aunt Julie and Kelvin were all there too. We stayed for a few hours so that everyone had a chance to spent time with Abigail.

Grandma bought her the cutest dresses for Christmas and a faux fur coat. She looks like a mini pimp in it. My favorite was a cranberry red dress with a ruffle duster shawl. It barely fit so Grandma was going to see if she could exchange for a bigger size. I am crossing my fingers. Second place is a red corduroy with little Scotties on it.



Someday we will be able to teach her about all the things we have to be thankful for. There are so many things in our life that we are grateful and thankful for this year particularly, but the one that stands out the most is Abigail. Life got a whole lot sweeter when she came along.
