Giving Thanks

We had a great Thanksgiving Holiday.
For us it actually began a couple of weeks ago when Kristin, my younger sister, was in town from Kansas for an early thanksgiving. We had the traditional meal then and it was delicious.
This past week the Neely family got together again, sadly without Kristin, for another meal. Prime rib, the best potatoes you've ever tasted, espiargus, sauteed mushrooms, etc... I'm all for Thanksgiving meal, but this one was tough to beat. Thanksgiving afternoon we went to the Fantasy of Trees to start the Christmas holiday. I can remember going to this years ago with our family. It was our tradition to go every year after lunch. It was a bit surreal to be back now with my own children.
Friday we took off and spent a couple of very relaxing days with the Fendley family in Sevierville. It was great to just sit around, watch tv, play some games and enjoy good meals. Davis calls darts "Fun".
Here are a few pics of our festivities.

If you can't tell, Davis loved the merry go round. Every time it finished all you heard was, "more, more" and the next person would go with him. Please notice Katie got her face painted hoping it would encourage Davis to allow them to paint his face. He did not give in. Instead he went with a snowman painted on his hand.
