Thankful

  This year, we spent Thanksgiving in Georgia. Thomas was so excited to go see Nana and Papa...he talked about going to "the farm" for weeks. Patrick's Aunt Beth and Uncle Harry were also there with their son, Scott, and his wife Becky.

Group picture, round two! Everyone is there!

 

On Saturday, Thomas got to ride one of the ponies, Hot Shot. Can you tell he was just a tiny bit excited?

 

 

Off to feed the horses some "big carrots."

 

 

Off he goes....

 

The other horses were jealous of the attention that Hot Shot was getting.

 

Nana, I'm cold!

 

Thanks for the ride, Hot Shot!

 

Of course, Thomas had to take a turn on the tractor, or front-end loader as he will quickly correct you. This boy knows way too much about the nuances of tractors and construction equipment. I cannot keep up!

 

 

Thankful for our little guy and his baby brother, Henry! We got our first gift with his name on it. Still to finalize the middle name, but we are certain about Henry. Patrick's grandfather was Henry Thomas Walker. He went by Thomas and that is our Thomas's namesake. His great-grandfather was also Henry Walker.

 

 

We had a great Thanksgiving. Glad to be home and done with all of our driving, though! Started pulling out the Christmas decorations yesterday. It is my most favorite time of the year!!!
