We give thanks...

We hope everyone is having a wonderful Thanksgiving with lots of food, naps, football, and reflection on all the blessings in our lives!
We are thankful for...

  • Our wonderful God and the ability to worship Him and receive His blessings

  • Jason's continued safety and that he will be home SOON!

  • Family and friends

  • Pain free travels..woohoo!

  • Perfect afternoons to nap...I should be napping now...Riley has been sleeping for over 2 hours now...she ate good and the triptophan is definitely working on her!

We got to hear from Jason on our way home from lunch and he had a good Thanksgiving as well...the third country nationals prepared a very nice buffet complete with ice sculptures, watermelon displays, and a model of the Mayflower ship made with cardboard and macaroni noodles...he said it was GREAT! He had to go back to work after eating turkey instead of napping, but he should be sleeping now and is planning to wake up at 4 am to watch the Aggie game with some of his Aggie buddies and t.u. rivals...that's dedication!

Riley has a special Thanksgiving message to share with everyone...this is her just blabbing away...so cute...let me know if you know what she's saying!

We had a great lunch at the Georgian club...it's at the very top of a building by the Galleria in Atlanta and we enjoyed a great view while we stuffed our bellies full of scrumptous goodies! Riley had turkey, dressing, carrots, mashed potatoes, and sweet potatoes...and a few snitches of her momma's chocolate mousse!

The club is completey surrounded by floor to ceiling windows and Riley LOVED standing up and enjoying the view!

I'm pretty sure she was saying, "My Aunt Megan is sooo cool. I wish I could be just like her when I grow up." Yep, that's definitely what she said.

JoPa says Riley is telling everyone that she misses her dad and her JoPa. That's what I'm talking about. Go Riley!!!
