Our Turkey Day

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving!  We kicked off the day at the Troy Turkey Trot, where Seamus and Grace ran the kids’ mile run.  The Trot is lots of fun…so many crazy characters and costumes to see!

And the Smile Monster!!  The kids love seeing all the mascots.

The kids couldn’t wait to dress up this year for the run!  Grace wore her ballerina costume, and it was so cool to hear all the people on the sidelines yelling to her about how cute she looked!

Seamus insisted on being a basketball player…although he did say next year he’s planning to wear something a little crazier!

The kids did great on the run and we had so much fun.  Over 6,000 people participate in the races of the Turkey Trot and we are proud to be a part of it!

We hosted Thanksgiving at our house for the first time and it was wonderful!  Unfortunately no pics from the rest of the day, but we enjoyed counting our blessings and being together!
