We had a very busy Thanksgiving weekend this year! Warning: Picture Overload Ahead!!
On Thursday, Eric and I were lucky enough to get to use my Dad's season tickets to go to the Cowboy game. It was a pretty exciting game, but definitely would've been more fun had the Cowboys pulled off a win. I think this was our first Thanksgiving ever to not celebrate on the actual day of. Eric and I had pizza for lunch at Boston's before the game... ha!
From our seats....
Keith Urban doing the halftime show
Friday morning we drove up to Eric's parent's place to celebrate with the Beckman side of the family. Carter had the best time with his cousins! They were so much fun to watch!
Carter and Devin heading down to the lake
They were giving each other hugs ALL day long.... so precious!
The "kid" table!
They were racing from Eric down the hill to me.... there were a couple of hilarious spills, too!
Love this picture! They were trying to spot turtles on the shoreline
Sitting on stumps....
They ♥ their Grandma!
Boys being boys....
Throwing walnuts in the water.... this was probably the favorite activity of the day.
Check out the adorable boots!
My precious boy....
Throwing more walnuts
Carter, Eric, and Devin enjoying a little swing time
A little rough-housing after dinner....
Devin wasn't too sure he liked his younger cousin messing with him, but I think secretly he did!
And more hugs!
Saturday we headed to my parent's house. Besides us and my parents, both of my brothers were there, my Grandma, my Aunt and Uncle from Missouri, and my cousin from Austin with his three boys. We had a full house, for sure, with lots of energetic little boys to keep busy. Between the basketball games in the driveway, a bonfire out in the woods, and about 1,000 matchbox cars among other things, there was plenty for them to do!

Proof that I was there too! I'm always the one behind the camera it seems.
Grant and Carter play a game of basketball....
...and then soccer
...and then play in the leaves.
Such a great helper!
Everyone out around the bonfire
John and his boys roasting marshmellows
Mmmmm.... s'mores!

Oh look, there I am again! Somehow this is the only family photo we got.
I do really love this picture of the three of us though, even though Carter has a mouth full of graham crackers and I have no make up on!
Hope everyone else had a wonderful holiday weekend! We have so much to be thankful for, and I always love the family time as a reminder of that! Looking forward to Christmas!!
