A Look Back at Thanksgiving 2009


This picture was accidentally left out when posting pics from Aunt Debbie's house.


On Thanksgiving day, Mason and I went with Nanny, Pap-Paw, and Dakota to a dinner in Dickson, TN. My grandfather's brother, George and his family had a Thanksgiving dinner/family reunion, since the only time we all see each other is when someone passes away. That's probably awful to say, but it's true.





Once again, Phil had to work on a holiday.





My Aunt Edie asked me if I would take pictures of all the family. So, of course I did.

















The three brothers.











Then that evening we to Aunt Debbie's house for supper.
My cousin Jeremy, and his boys, Jordan & Cameron.

Jordan & Mason

My cousins Christina & Bryan, and myself.

*The family picture at the top would've went here. oops.


Black Friday morning, my friend Nikki and I were parking the car at 6am, at the Wal-Mart in Lewisburg. This was the first time I had gotten up that early to catch all the sales. We also went to Kohl's, Target and ate breakfast at McDonald's, and still managed to make it back home by 10:30. Although Nikki didn't get the 32" TV she wanted, we still had a really good time. What about next year Nikki?





Saturday morning, Phil and I watched Huntleigh and Kelby for a couple of hours. Mason was thrilled to have them over.

Color time.


Kelby, 7 months old.

Saturday evening we ate Thanksgiving at Nana and Papa's.

Cowboy. Like his boots?

We had some fun the other night rolling the car to one another.

He has the most precious smile I've ever seen!

Getting Ready for Ashton!


Mason, just before he jumps into the leaves.

Saturday was all about the baby shower for Bryan and Nikki. I took a few snapshots of the parents-to-be, then we ate some good food, played games, and opened gifts.




Check out BRANDIE MASH PHOTOGRAPHY to see more of Bryan and Nikki.



In the leaves.


Corey, Baylee, Mason, & Dakota. Mason would do whatever the big kids did, or at least try.


We played the dirty diaper game. That was a hoot!!


GranNanny and Granny Rubert laughing at everybody sniffing the diapers.

This picture has a story to it. Bryan and Nikki told several people they needed some DREFT laundry detergent. Well, that stuck with Granny Rubert and she bought them 2 gallons of it. This stuff is pretty expensive.

He couldn't take it anymore.

Then he woke up and ate two peanut butter cookies covered in white chocolate.




Some other happenings:
I took Mason to the doctor last Thursday for a diaper rash that was just not going away. Come to find out he has a yeast infection. The doctor prescribed Nystatin. Needless to say that didn't work, so we were back in the doctor's office on Monday morning. Let's just say his little private area looked awful. Apparently, a yeast infection can do that. A different doctor prescribed a different cream and advised to use Monistat. Luckily this has worked. Today the rash/infection looks much better and will soon vanish completely. (Just some info in case some other new parents go through the same thing with their little one.)
