Thanksgiving 2014

This thanksgiving was one of the best I ever remember even though it didn't all go as planned. We were supposed to go to OKC for the first part of the trip but on Thursday Allie was running a 104 and after a trip to the Doctor was diagnosed with The flu. 

We decided to just leave Wednesday and go to Tulsa for a family Thanksgiving. My brother & sister and all there families got to come as well as my dad's sister, her husband, grandson, & her son and wife. Of course Grandma & Grandpa Bell were there! We ate a lot and just hung out! The kiddos had a blast playing together.

 There was lots of rocking chair time with Meme.

And of course the big kids were able to talk Meme into some shopping at Rue21! 

 Emilia & Hudson had there first cousin bath! 

Emilia had her first sit up bath! 

We got to see cousin Axel as well! 

We got to meet Laura & Aaron's Addison and the big girls got to join Aaron's family for their Tradtional Friday-after-thanksgiving-coco-&-Rhema-lights tradition. I am so thankful for Laura being so intentional about maintaining her relationship with the girls and Aaron and his family for being so welcoming and great to Chloe & Allie! 

My parents requested that we all take a new family pic together so we had a little photo session that went remarkably well even though we never got a pic of all the grand kids smiling at the same time. 

We headed home Sunday and made it back in about 9 hours with just a little traffic and of course lunch at Braums!
