Thanksgiving- Grandma & Popo Gary's House

Thanksgiving turned out to be such a wonderful day! We went to Jon's parent's for lunch and the food was so yummy! It is so good to be able to sit and visit and just relax. It seems like we are always so busy that it is hard to just stop and enjoy the moment, however, on Thanksgiving we did just that. We stopped and really enjoyed the day with family. We didn't get to see my family but we will see all of them for Christmas in a couple weeks. So we are really looking forward to that visit.

Jon, Julie, Jared & Jake @ Grandma & Popo Gary's house


I had mentioned to Jon earlier in the morning that I really wanted to take the kids to see Momo (Jon's grandma) during the Cowboy game. He knew Jared would want to stay with him to watch the game, so it was going to be just Jake and myself. During lunch I mentioned my idea to Angela and she had already thought the same thing. I guess great minds think alike!! :) So after lunch we headed out to see Momo. It was Diana, Angela (Jon's mom & sister), Jake and myself . We wanted it to be a surprise and it turned out to be a very nice surprise. Diana's brother's Rudy and Steve were there as well, so we had a real nice visit with everyone. Jake was a little Ham!!! He wouldn't stop talking! He is always full of stories so there is never a dull moment with him. We would just laugh when he would tell us how many girlfriends he has and then he invited Uncle Rudy to come over to our house one day to meet all of his girlfriends. LOL!!!

The cowboy game was on in the background and during one of the commercials they showed some of the Army troops sending holiday greetings to their loved ones. Jake turned around and said something like, "I don't know anyone in the army". And Momo said, "Well Jake, then who is that person in the army uniform in that picture on the wall?" Jake immediately said, "Jon". LOL! Rather then Daddy... Then he said, "but he is not in the army, he is just an army helper." hahaha He was so serious too! He associates the Army with the "camo uniform" rather then the dress uniform. We all started laughing as he was just as serious as he could be. For those of you who didn't know, Jon was in the army right out of school for about 4 yrs or so. So once again, we all got a good laugh out of Jake.

The below couple pic's are at Jon's parent's house. Jake loves to blow out candles especially when he thinks that no one is watching.
I will post more Thanksgiving pic's tomorrow as I am Falling asleep!!!! I need to get to bed.



Jake "Thinking" about blowing this candle out because he doesn't know he is being watched.


And its out!! He didn't realize he was being watched!!
