Thanksgiving week we were blessed to spend the week with my family in Oklahoma. We had a whirlwind week of fun: the boys took in a Thunder game, ate my mom's fabulous cooking Thanksgiving day, saw the new Harry Potter movie with my niece and sister-in-law, celebrated an early Christmas, had lunch with some high school friends I hadn't seen since Graduation Day 15 years ago, celebrated my niece, Gentry's birthday, built bears at Build-a-Bear with Gentry and Grace, watched OU beat OSU in an amazing football game, and saw the Yukon Park's Christmas lights….all in about three days!
It's so wonderful to see the kids interact and play together. All of the cousins had a great time with each other and the weather cooperated so they could spend much of their time in my parent's big backyard. Hendrix and Jake dressed up at Woody and Buzz together, and the girls played (and fought) dolls :) Disney and Ky were great to play with the little ones, and I'm convinced that my new niece Morgan is the world's greatest baby. She's such a little doll (really, she looks like a porcelain doll), and just watched the big kids and took it all in.
Our family is truly blessed…we had much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving!

Jake in awe of my dad's storage shed…the kids think it's the greatest playhouse ever
Jake and Hendrix thought Morgan needed a few toys to play with…
Dad posing with his Sooner Nation flag…the flag must have been good luck because OU beat OSU in one of the greatest bedlam games of all time. Ty got to witness Mom and I watch a game together and see the madness ensue. We were both jumping and screaming…Ty saw where I got my extreme love of Sooner football :)
