Thanksgiving 2017

We had Thanksgiving with the Johnson clan this year.  We held dinner in our basement...a little crowded, but it worked out fine.  We actually only had 17 people this year, which is less than we've had other years.

See all the cute decorations that I whipped up at the last minute!  (Tip: Don't wait to buy Thanksgiving decorations until a day or two before the big event.  The dollar store will be out of most everything.  Just take my word for it. HA!)

Wendy and her kids came for Thanksgiving and it was so fun to have them here.  She isn't planning to come for Christmas, so we were so glad to have her for at least this holiday.  She's always so good about driving down to visit, and we all love it when they come.  (We definitely missed Anthony. He had to work....UGH!)

Of course, we had some yummy desserts!  It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without that, would it?

Eric and Andraea spent the holiday with her family this year, but they did come over after Thanksgiving and it was awesome to see them! (Do you see how long Eric's hair is getting?  I've asked him to cut it for my Christmas gift this year...we'll see what happens.) :)  For the record, I do love him either way of course.

It was a great holiday!  We have so many things to be thankful for.  We are truly blessed and I love my family so much!  Happy Thanksgiving!
