Our First Thanksgiving

Our Thanksgiving consisted of many firsts! Obviously this was the first time we had an infant and her schedule to juggle. Plus, we had to be prepared for anything and everything...infants are so unpredictable! We had to bring the infant papasan for her to take her naps in, the boppy to feed with, lots of diapers, wipes, burp clothes, a change of clothes, the car seat (we had to get there somehow!), the camera, blankets, gloves, extra socks in case it gets cold...the kitchen sink...goodness gracious I've never packed so much for just an afternoon out! I guess this is the beginning of my over packing:) Here are some pictures from our Thanksgiving afternoon.
The Atlanta Noels getting to meet their niece and cousin before we all sat down to a feastWho wants turkey and Great-Granny's homemade rolls....I do!
Our first family shot...she couldn't keep her eyes off of dad!
This is how we all felt after eating our feast...I think her yawn is bigger than she is!!
And she is out...too bad this didn't last through the night! Oh well:) We had a wonderful first Thanksgiving and look forward to many more to come!

Haha, now you know why we bring so many suitcases when we travel home to Virginia! :) Don't worry, the older they get, the less you actually need. Great photos - we missed you guys.
