Thanksgiving 2012

Our Thanksgiving holiday began on Friday when we met my family for dinner at Jim 'N Nick's barbecue. Yum. 
I snapped this picture of Paisley's new accessory. Nugget. 
 At dinner, Mac was all about giving his Nana kisses.
 Uncle Jeff stopped by too!
 Nana brought me all these fun things she's made or ordered. Paisley's hair is top priority, ya know.
 On our way to our Thanksgiving feast!
 We spent Thanksgiving in Nashville with several families. It was a special memory in the making, and I love that we have so many pictures of the day. 
We were at Jordan's brother Kyle's house in Brentwood. We shared the holiday with my family, Jordan's parents, Kyle and Courtney and kids, Courtney's parents and Courtney's brother's family. Whew. Lots of family. Love. It. 
Our hosts :-)
Here's the whole Allen crew
 Big girl cousins, Lilly Scott and Caitlin
 Chattanooga Allens
Courtney's parents and the cutest pup, Izzy

 Katherine got some sweet pics of Mac and Paisley. 
I love how their personalities totally show in pictures now. 

Mac and Paw Paw
 Miss busy body... 
 I love Mac's expression in the background... and their Uncle Jeff between them ;-)
 After lunch we enjoyed the perfect weather.



  I am NOT a football fan or athlete, and I'm forced to play every year. I escaped the wrath the past two years, but this year I had no excuse. It ends up being fun, but I'm super competitive as long as I know I have a fighting chance. Backyard football in skinny jeans and ballet flats- no. I played anyway, and my shoes still smell. :-/
Here I am... running like a crazy person, praying the ball isn't thrown my way. Terrible. I know. I'm okay with that, but look at Courtney's face. Serious. She changed even changed clothes. I didn't stand a chance. Next year... maybe. 
The next day Mac had a stomach bug. Poor boy threw up every so often. He didn't know what to do and cried the whole time. He finally got some relief when he fell asleep on Daddy.
 Back home to Chattanooga we go! :o)

What a great Thanksgiving holiday we shared with some pretty incredible people. 
as always,
ashley
