I am thankful for......

Family!! Here are my Thanksgiving pics finally! Haylie & Landon Mathies, our cousins, and my 3 girls. Liv had to strip down a little as it was pretty warm that day! We all gathered at my mom and dad's house and had a wonderful day of just being together. There's always lots of us and it can get pretty loud but I love it! Check out Landon's cheese in this pic!

The one who started it all---Papaw Brown. He's the main man and loves being with all of his family as much as possible.

This is a picture of my aunt Peggy Mattingly & her daughter, my cousin, Nikki Gee.

Here's cousins Hunter Brown & Landon M. playing with their 4-wheelers my mom got for them. She always buys the kids a little gift to play with on that day and they love them even if they are just $1 toys. In the background is cousins Brett Mattingly, Levi & C.J. Brown stretching out on the couch.

My SIL Jessica with Olivia. It was Liv's 1st Thanksgiving & Jessica's 1st as a married woman:)

...and here's Jessica's crazy hubby, AKA my dorky brother Josh, my Dad & mom, my uncle Charlie's wife Darlene and Papaw on the left talking in the kitchen. Don't ask what Josh is doing--he actually had his leg wrapped around my Dad posing then started to take it down as I snapped the pic! Lord help us!

Nikki, Gerry Mattingly, Jared M. and my Dad talking, which is what they do best!

This would've been a really great pic of my mom & Olivia but mom's eyes were almost closed! Oh well, still good anyway!

Lastly I could not forget to include a picture of Mother the cat! Her given name is Molly Jo but she became "Mother". Here she is with Josh as he gets ready to torment her. Poor Ma, she is only 15 years old!!! She is a lilac siamese & is definitely one of the family. Usually in big crowds she goes & hides but Thanksgiving she actually sat in chairs next to everyone! It was funny.
