Tradition took us to Illinois to spend Thanksgiving with Brian's family. We shared Thanksgiving lunch with Slade's Grandpa & Grandma and his Uncle Chad, Aunt Suzy, and cousins Nicole & Jake! And...because we are terrible at this picture thing, we don't have a family pic of our first Thanksgiving with Slade. That would make too much sense... So we have TWO pics, one with Slade and his cousins and another with his great aunt and uncle!
Although Slade could not have any turkey and stuffing he did enjoy carrots for the first time! Like the cereal, he wasn't quite sure about them at first and kept leaning his head back in attempt to make them go away, I guess. Next up, squash, peas, sweet potatoes, green beans and then we start fruits. 
Soon after lunch the rest of the family made their Thanksgiving rounds. Tina, Nathan and their boys stopped by with Missy, Caitlyn, Sally and Camilla. Following them were Slade's great Aunt Gloria, Great Uncle Steve (who met Slade for the first time) and his son Matt. It was a festive time and we enjoyed seeing everyone!
We spent Friday shopping and eating leftovers before heading back to Georgia Saturday! We'll spend two weeks at home and then we're off to Kentcky for Christmas! It's looking to be an extremely busy holiday season, so lots of posts and pics coming soon! Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas!
