Winston's First Thanksgiving!

We had a great Thanksgiving!  We traveled all the way down to Grandma Fife's house in American Fork.  We celebrated with Grandma, some aunts and uncles, and a few cousins.  We ate a delicious dinner, skyped with McKay in China, and played a few games.  I love Thanksgiving!

 One of the rare moments that Winston was held by Whit.  Most of the day everyone else was fighting over who would get to hold him.

 This is mom skyping with McKay.  We missed him this year!  He said he had a pretty good Thanksgiving though :)

 Winston being held by Aunt Kerry.  He is definitely quite popular with the ladies, my aunts at least!  :)

 The whole gang out in grandma's back yard.

 Winston loves his great-grandma!  We do too!  :)

 Four generations with 4 different last names--Ackroyd, Fife, Christensen, and Anderson!

 I've been putting Winston on his stomach and his neck is getting really strong.  He's just resting here though, but I thought he looked cute :)

 His infamous "grumpy face"

 He just loves being held by his dad!

 And he loves his grandma Julie!  :)  She came down with the Holley family for a visit on Saturday.  We had nachos for dinner and the girls got to meet Winston for the first time.

 Here he is with beautiful aunt Linsey :)

 and the fun Holley girls!

This doesn't quite capture it, but Winston was quite taken with his cousin!  Every time she would talk with him, he would turn his head and listen intently to her.  It was so fun to watch.  Winston is so lucky to be surrounded by such great family!  We are too--we sure did enjoy seeing and talking with so many of our family members this week.  It was great.  I wish there was a holiday every week!

  2. What a wonderful holiday filled with lots and lots of love. Make sure that precious boy knows he has a Grandpa and Grandma in Lebanon who adore him too! He is growing so fast! We both feel like we are looking at a mini Whit! Hugs and kisses and wishes for a the best holiday season ever!
    We love you all.
