A Barefoot Family Thanksgiving

If you are reading this, you've probably heard about my family's Thanksgiving or experienced it for yourself. It is not like most Thanksgivings because a. it is held in a barn, b. our main course is whole hog, not turkey, and c. our after-dinner activities consist of shooting skeet and playing kickball. Oh, and you can always count on at least 75 people being there. It's the fun-loving, have-a-good-time, enjoy-being-together, laid back kind of holiday. It is always so much fun!
 Everybody gathering around, waiting on dinner to be ready!

 Uncle James built this amazing fort next door to Pap's. It was awesome!

 Uncle Hue took everybody on a really fun hayride.

 Another Uncle James invention-a kid favorite!

 Bonnie and Lucy look like linebackers due to their jackets being worn under their jerseys.
They were so cute!

 The Meadow Lights Carousel-woo hoo!

The girls loooove the Meadow Lights train!

Pullen Park

 I know that I am waaay behind on blogging. It seems like every post begins that way lately. Such is life with a busy two year old! I figured that I needed to start with Thanksgiving where I left off. When we landed in Raleigh for Thanksgiving, mom and dad picked us up and took us to the coolest park ever. The citizens of Raleigh are so fortunate to have this park. It has real rides for a dollar a piece, not to mention a great playground. It was a great way to begin our holiday weekend. More pictures of Thanksgiving to come!
