What a great time of year! Thanksgiving is so just the start of christmas season for me! I am so thankful this thanksgiving! i have the greatest, sweetest (besides this new hitting stage) little boy and a great Husband ( who def. doesn't hit!!!:)) I am also thankful that I got to spend time with such a great friend, Deana! She was an RA in my dorm my freshman year. Good ole' Cone Hall! Our first date was to the grocery store to get Viola chicken dinner and the rest is history! She doesn't live here so we don't get to see each other often. We wanted a pic together, and then decided to make up for so few pics lately with a photo shoot!

John Ross' Aunt made him this awesome game! I wanted to not get too caught up with cleaning the house today and actually spend some quality time with him just playing on the floor! he really likes this game!!!! /we used it just as a matching game. I would hand him the spoon and he would find the spoon picture and put them together. I was like, oh my goodness, my kid is a genius!!!!!! he is growing up so much:) (BTW, he wasn't into the camera this morning.)

John Ross first learned about socks on your hand from his cousin, who called them his 'worker gloves'. Lee put them on him the other day and he LOVED it! I was walking around using his 'gloves' to clean everything!

this last pic reminds me soooooo much of a picture of me when I was little walking the same way, with the same face!

I am really overcome with thankfulness this year. I am still so thankful for the easy transition of going back to work. The days since John Ross was born have flown by, but I am thankful for everyday, for every moment. I am thankful for my husband and that he really is my best friend! I hope that everyone has a great Thanksgiving and enjoys family time and good food!
