Thanksgiving (Lafayette)

Mommy Ran/Walked her first 5K race Thanksgiving morning with Auntie!
It was 23 degrees at race time! Brrrr!!!

Auntie & Mommy warmed up with Starbucks after the race.
Auntie got JCS this snowman cookie! Yum!

Shannon, Tom & Joel

Joel is 6 months old and full of smiles!

Joshua had a lot of fun being the older cousin!


Happy baby eating & playing peek-a-boo!

Great Grandma Evelyn & Great Grandpa Wilbur

Writing/drawing our leaves of thankfulness!

Each person had 3 leaves. Each leaf had something we were thankful for.
Mommy placed them on the tree as Daddy read them allowed.
This is a visually example of how much we are thankful for!

So very thankful Joshua gets to spend time with his great grandparents!
So special to have them so close!
