Thanksgiving in Garden City

We had an absolutely wonderful time in Garden City for Thanksgiving. It was wonderful for be surrounded by family and introducing Blakely to many family members that hadn't met her yet.

We pulled into Garden City late Wednesday night after an evening of traveling. Blakely did amazing well on the way there. She didn't sleep in the car much but was happy and content in her seat.

On Thursday many of Noah's family members from his dad's side came over for Thanksgiving Dinner. This incleded a few babies that are the same age as Blakely. We took a picture that includes me and Blakely (4/20/13), Noah's cousin's wife and their daughter Harper (4/17/2013),  Noah's other cousin Rachel and her daughter Ari (4/7/2013). We even included Noah's other cousin Derek's wife and their daughter Braelynn who was born in early November. It will be a fun picture to show the girls when they are bigger!

On Saturday we traveled an hour west to Leoti, KS where Noah's grandparents live. We had a get together with ALL of his mom's side of the family to celebrate his grandparents 60th anniversary. It was so inspiring and precious to see all the people that are in this world because of the loved they share. Noah and I both look up dearly to his grandparents I can only pray that someday Noah and I will be able to celebrate our own 60th anniversary surrounded by our children and their spouses, grandchildren, and even a few great grandchildren just like they did.

Blakely, GREAT Grandma, and GREAT Grandpa looking at the quiet book GREAT Grandma made.
Love everything about this picture. So much love and heritage.
A picture truly is worth a thousands words.

We had a great time and hope to make it back to Garden City sometime in the near future!
