Thanksgiving in DeRidder

I realize this is a little out of order, but I wanted to share our Thanksgiving pictures with everyone. We traveled Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to spend Thanksgiving with Granny and Papa in good old DeRidder, Louisiana. (We spent the night at a sketchy hotel in Vicksburg, MS) We also got to spend some time with Uncle Ryan, Aunt Katie, Maddie and Anna. Unfortunately, we did not get to see Uncle Adam because they were working him to death at Target. (You know, it being the busiest shopping day of the year and all.) Anyway, we had a wonderful time visiting with everyone and preparing our Thanksgiving meal. The food was great (as always...except for that oyster dressing...sorry Granny...I just can't do oysters!) but the fellowship was even better. The kids always love spending time with Granny and Papa and don't mind spending 12 hours in the car to do it! (By the way, neither do we!)

Granny and Papa wanted to take a picture of us all together for their Christmas card. So, my wanna be photographer husband brought our camera, a tripod and his trusty remote and we gave it a shot. Here are the best of the pictures out of about a hundred shots. And you know what, the kids did great...if only we could get Papa to keep looking at the camera!!
