Thanksgiving 2012

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving in the mountains this year!  Papaw, Jeff, Reba, and Jonathan joined us, my mom and dad and Matt and Mary Ann for a full house of fun.  We ate lots on Thursday - and then napped! - and on Friday went to pick out Christmas trees.  Sam did well for being in a new place.  He loved watching the ceiling fans, the fire, and the chiming clock.  He also enjoyed chasing the two dogs (Vanilla and Avett), who tried to get as far from him as possible.  We had a few issues with him waking up from naps because of all the noise, but once we put the pack-n-play in Mom and Dad's shower, he slept great.  Everyone was so helpful and always willing to hold him or feed him; I think he went into family withdrawal once we got home!  Here are a few photos from the weekend:

Sam was thrilled.

Yep.  Still waiting.

I shot a gun!


It was fun.  And I hit the target!

In all the shooting, someone (Jeff) shot out the cable for the satellite dish.  This is the men repairing it in the FREEZING cold on Friday night.
