Thanksgiving pictures!

We had a very nice, relaxing Thanksgiving with Eric's family in Tulsa.  The greatest thing about our families is that even though we grew up in very similar ways, our families are completely opposite.  My family is large and loud and most of us don't even realize that the world exists before 9:00 a.m.  Everyone stays up until all hours of the night playing games and being obnoxious.  Eric's family, on the other hand, is quiet and calm and very relaxing.  Morning is the prime time with them (I'll admit, I'm still trying to adjust, even after 5 years of marriage!) and we're all in bed early.  It's glorious! :)  Here are a few pictures from our trip...

Grant was really fussy one morning and did not want me to put him down.  I handed him to Eric and then walked out of the room to take my shower.  I guess Grant had turned to find me and finally gave up because when I walked back in after my shower, this is how I found my boys!

We went over to Bill and Karen's Wednesday afternoon so the kiddos could play together.  They had a good time, but I never could get all 4 of them to look at the camera at the same time.
After Thanksgiving dinner, before the Cowboys game.  I think I might frame this one.
The Rath grandchildren in reverse birth order.  (That's the only way I can remember that Lindsey is the one on the outside and Leah is next to Regan. I know they're my nieces, but for the life of me, I can NOT tell those girls apart!!)
Seriously. How sweet is this!?

Your kids are just adorable. The picture of Grant asleep sideways on Eric cracks me up. I really like your background for the blog- I've never changed mine...I think I should! Anyways, I will look forward to emailing SOON with some pictures of chase baby #2. Love you.
