Happy Thanksgiving you'uns!

Despite the obscene amount of whining I do, I am really, really thankful for a lot of things.

Mostly?

Thing one and Thing two:



Also?




This crazy dog who loves to swing on our front porch swing.

Hugely?











This family that the four of us have managed to create. Not out of a sense of obligation, but out of genuine love, concern, and mutual respect.

For these things, I am profoundly thankful.

Also? For Diet Pepsi.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I? Am super thankful for this post. With so many pictures of my favorite people it freaking hurts.

BTW did you get my email? Punk son stole phone. ET phone home later. Or something. Though you'll be kicking it with your sister foo's.

All I know is I'm thankful you have this fabulous family that is REAL and WONDERFUL because you all are.

Love you.

Clearly? I have no home training. :)

Just this morning at our family breakfast, I introduced the term "You-uns" to my yankee family members.

Have an awesome Turkey Day!

Have a great day - and don't stuff yourselves TOO silly.

For the love of shoes, could your kids be any more cute? Could your crazy swinging dog be anymore adorable?!

And seriously? You SO need to stop being so down on yourself. You are SUCH a beautiful girl!! The face, the smile, the kick ass hair!! I'd sell Jimmy's spleen to look like that!!

Happy Turkey Day!!

You know, I had that Christmas card photo of your family up long after Christmas was over. You four just looked so wonderful together, and so happy - like the definition which should be under 'family' in the dictionary.

Also? I can't believe how big Thing One and Thing Two have grown - some of those photos remind me of how little they were when I first got to 'know' you.
