Thankful

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  We certainly did!  We visited with all the McCoys and some friends in Johnson City, TN.  As per Thanksgiving tradition, the highlight of the trip was a visit to the farm.  This year, it was so great to have such warm weather!  It was almost too warm to even roast s'mores around the campfire, but we did anyways and they were heavenly.  

 We dropped our stuff off at the house and then took off on the fourwheelers.  We stopped in the woods for a minute for a couple of pics.  Here's Davin, Jason and Tom.  Not sure what they are all looking at!

How adorable is his little outfit?

The littlest nephew chilled back at the farmhouse.  All smiles.

Time to set up for the campfire grilling.  YUM!

It was seriously so hot by the fire, but we put up with it for yummy hotdogs and s'mores.

This year I made HOMEMADE marshmallows.  Matt didn't even think there was such a thing.  Made for some amazing s'mores and even better as an addition to Jason's famous hot chocolate that evening.  

Friends :)

I tried to get some cool photos while Matt was getting ready to shoot.  I think I succeeded! 

Can you even believe this photo?!  I shot a gun for the first time.  Yikes.  But if you look closely at my target, I'd say I didn't do too bad for my first time!

And look who else is a first time shooter!  

We had a great time at the farm, as usual, and a wonderful long Thanksgiving weekend with the McCoys.  We have so much to be thankful for!  

Oh, and the rest of the evening was spent in a 3-hour heated debate on whether the guys could run a half marathon without training, and then in what order they would finish.  It ended with Jennifer about to punch Jason, Matt laying on the floor with an ice pack on his back, Tom at one point betting up to $50,000 that he could beat Matt, and Kristinne being super thankful for her hubby and maybe not ever hanging out with the McCoy and Tom again.  Good times!
