For Thanksgiving this year we headed down to Houston! Thanksgiving is always so much fun down there! Bumpa and Gigi host dinner, and supply the (large) turkey, and then everyone else brings their specialty, ranging from wine to green bean casserole and stuffing!!! There were 20 people in all, dispersed amongst 3 tables. So, needless to say it was loud, but a ton of fun. It took Olivia awhile to warm up to everyone, but by the end she had them all wrapped around her little finger! She played Barbies with Aunt Nancy, got a precious shirt from Aunt Belinda, and took turns taking each of her 3 uncles on a castle hunt. The day ended with a swim in the spa! It was freezing outside, but that did not deter her! Bumpa was kind enough to accompany her, and then not to anger when she wanted out only 20 minutes after getting into the water! Here are a few pictures from our holiday!
