Thanksgiving x 2!

Jackson and Jonathan were super psyched that we had not 1, but 2 Thanksgiving celebrations this year.  Jackson was heard repeatedly muttering, "Best Thanksgiving EVER!!"   :)

So how did we manage all this celebratory wonderfulness?  With the help of the incredible Matheney family, of course!  They were so kind and gracious to invite our entire extended family to their home to share Thanksgiving Day with them and their extended family.  What a lovely day!  The food was yummy and we so enjoyed getting to know both Matt and Brenda's parents better.

I only got a photo of this table...  Linda, Matt, Mama, Daddy, Betty, Julie, Brenda and Marvin

I love this 'post Thanksgiving meal' photo!   :D



Then, on Saturday, we 'switched houses' and did it all again!  Everyone met at Julie's house for our 2nd Thanksgiving.  In addition to the Matheney family (minus Linda and Bill who had to leave town that morning) we enjoyed the company of Arayna, Shane and Betty J.  Again, a day filled with yummy food and good conversation.

As Jackson said, eating Thanksgiving food for multiple days was amazing!  Although, I do have to admit that by Sunday lunch we were all ready for a change and headed to the Lake Restaurant for a good old steak!   :)

Megan, my hero.   :D

Even he was impressed!  :)
