This year's Thanksgiving was a little different than normal for us. A little more . . . lowkey. After the busy season we've had and just getting back from a 12 day vacation a couple weeks ago, it was nice to have a calm holiday.
For Thanksgiving Day, it was just our family of six and my parents. Yes, different than normal, for sure! We hosted the meal at our house and had a really lovely day.
For once, I remembered to take a photo of the food. Yum!
Ready to eat!
After the meal and cleanup, we sat down for an afternoon of game playing. I was cold, so I had my house robe on to keep me warm!
As the evening set in, the kids played, Dad walked, and Mom and I visited. Jeremy and his crew FaceTimed us to talk for a bit, and we had texted with Lisa earlier in the day. It was a beautiful, relaxing day!
Bren, Daddy, and I took a walk around the land to get some fresh air and do some exploring.
Down by the pond there was evidence of beavers that Bren found fascinating.
While I miss the big family gathering during some holidays, it's nice to have time to relax and not feel like you need a vacation after a holiday. We are always thankful for time spent with one another!
