Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a great Thanksgiving this year!  We have so very much to be thankful for:)  We did some travelling once again this year - first to Green Bay to vist Great Grandma and Great Grandpa.  We had a special treat this year in that we were able to celebrate Thanksgiving with the entire side of that family - Great Grandma and Grandpa, Uncle Pat & Aunt Christine and their kids, Britta and Maya, Grandpa & Grandma, Uncle Derek, Mommy, Daddy and me!!  It was the first time we were all together since Makenna has been born!  We had a great time and Makenna LOVED all the special attention:)

Of course, her favorite thing to do was to check out Great Grandma's organ


Great Grandma teaching Makenna how to play Happy Birthday on the organ.

Love this one of Great Grandma loving on Makenna:)

Makenna really loved hanging out with Great Aunt Christine!  And she got such a kick out of listening to Makenna - she cracked everyone up the whole day with the things she says.  She talks in complete thoughts and sentences and has such an imagination on her that she just makes us laugh all day long.  Her big thing at Thanksgiving was that she found a CD in one of Great Grandma's piano books and was trying to get Christine to find a CD player, which of course noone had.  "You find a CD player?" was what we heard about every 5 minutes.

Then of course when Britta and Maya showed up, Makenna was convinced they had brought a CD player.  No such luck.  Oh well, Christine promised next time we see her she would find a CD player just for Makenna. 
 
Next, it was off to Thanksgiving #2 (and yes, we ate 2 meals within 1 hour of each other.  Yikes!)
 
We headed over to Auntie Amy & Uncle Eric's and got to spend some great time with Mommy's side of the family.  Here I am loving on my uncle Jeffy.

It was a BEAUTIFUL day out we Mommy taught me her mad basketball skills.

I got pretty good at catching and throwing the ball

 
We are stuffed! 
 
Happy Thanksgiving!!
