Thanksgiving 2014

 

This Thanksgiving we spent the week at Mimi and Papa's house.

Everyone was able to be there.

There is never a dull moment with these two. They play really well together--they are usually playing "mommy and daddy" or "big church".

CHAF 2014

 

This year our neighborhood arts festival was a family affair. 

Grayson got busy drawing prints, cards, and gift tags.

 

 

My kids were my biggest fans as I worked on various children's items to sell. They were anxious to model the items for my pics.

Chad was busy selling his growth chart rulers once again this year.

 

 

Mimi and Papa came for the weekend to help out with the kids and we all had a surprise visit from Uncle Andrew and Aunt Sarah!! All the way from Nashville to see the little artist at work!!

 

 

The kids were so excited and had the best time with them!

 

The day was a success!! Lots was sold, the weather was beautiful, and we got to catch up with friends!!
