We spent Thanksgiving day in Ft. Worth with my family.
I'm not quite sure where my mother found the time for making these elaborate turkey cupcakes, but they were a big hit! I think my mom had as much fun making them as everyone else did eating them!
My sister's son received a skateboard for his birthday & was very eager to learn how to ride it. Since no one in our family had ever ridden one (successfully) except for Matt, he was quickly elected as instructor. Of course, all of the cousins got in on the action. It wasn't long before they became very creative & found different ways to have fun with it!
We also celebrated my brother's daughter's birthday while we were all together. She is lucky that her birthday is always on or near Thanksgiving so she gets special treatment while everyone is together during that time!
The next two pictures are my FAVORITE! Unfortunate for them, my sister & sister-in-law were caught on camera making some fun faces. I hope they won't hate me forever for posting them.
For this picture of my sister-in-law, I just stuck the camera in front of her while she was talking. (I know, I know... so very cruel)
...and here they are all smiles!!
Bathtime with Devon at Grandma's house!
His hair is much too long to do that now.
The big finale: Devon had been doing the "military crawl" for quite some time & we were beginning to wonder if he would ever get his belly off the floor & do the "real thing." He did it for the first time at Grandma's house the night before we left! Grandma was so excited she got to see it!
