Thankful.

This Thanksgiving, we had the good fortune of the family coming to us this year! It was our first time hosting a holiday, so there was certainly a lot going on as we got ready for the family's arrival. Fourteen of us (nine of us, human) gathered round for our first feast in our home, and I think the dogs may have loved it even more than we did. Not only were they treated to some Thanksgiving turkey, of course, they also got to enjoy a nice walk by the river and tons of play time together. Banjo could really care less, but Millie really loved having her Mama Delaney and sister Penny visit. Even 15-year-old Great Uncle Spike made the trip, though most of the time he spent wandering the house in circles. And though the house was chaotic at times between the madness of dogs barking and a heap of dishes to prepare (and of course timed perfectly so they are all ready at the same time), it was truly such a wonderful holiday spent with (almost) all of the people I love so much. Here are just a few photos from our first Thanksgiving!

Banjo, Delaney, Penny, Millie, my Dad and I took a nice morning walk to the river.
