Thanksgiving 2011

Filed Under: Family, Photography, Thanksgiving Tagged With: Fall

On thanksgiving we went to three different places. The only place I took a lot of photos at was Kenny’s dads house. After our meal we went out to take some family photos.

Then we let the boys play in the leaves.

Carsyn loves being thrown into the air. He had so much fun.

Dustyn will eat raw collards but not cooked. He is a weird boy. Then him with Nana’s Christmas Tree.

This was taking at Kenny’s moms house. It is so gorgeous there. This one is SOOC. I might do something with a Thanksgiving quote.

I would love to hear about your thanksgiving. What did you do? Were you able to see your family?

    Great shots! I'm glad you had a great Thanksgiving! That's really funny about the collard greens! I used to only eat peas frozen and not cooked when I was a kid. haha.
