ThAnKsGiViNg 2009

If you look back a year ago at the post I did, the title was...

"A Bitter-Sweet Thanksgiving", well that's exactly what is was this year too.

This is now the 3rd year in a row that Branden has not been home for thanksgiving, next year he should be home but ya never know. I wish he could have been here, but it was still pretty good. First, I had dinner at my mom's house with the Seabolts (my mom's sister and her family) and ate a lot of food...

Here's the fam..
and me...

Later on, Ryan, Ashlee, and baby Carter joined us....

So precious!

My cousin Bryce holding Carter!

And then later I went over to the Binghams for a 2nd dinner,

where I ate a lot more food! And pie!

Thanks Everyone who made this thanksgiving a good one!

New Nephew!

Introducing Carter James Jones!

He was born on November 18th at 1:55 PM

and weighed 6 pounds 10 onces, and was 20 inches long.

Sooo CUTE and TINY!

I had to wear a mask because I had a bit of a cold,

but I am definately smiling underneath it!

Everything went well and mom, dad, and baby are doing good!

Congratulations Ryan & Ashlee!

and welcome to the world baby Carter!
