We started off our Thanksgiving day with a race at 0800. It represented many "firsts" for our family...Gavin's first 5K, my first race since having him (6 weeks ago), and our first race as a complete family (minus T-money)! The Berryhill's decided to join in the fun too. I have to say I am very proud of all of us...running on little to no sleep.
Yes...we figured out the car seat was crooked and fixed it BEFORE the race :).
Notice all the smiles-kinda :)
After the race and still asleep! Gavin was tired from all the exercise.Next up we attended the 2nd annual Thanksgiving Football game. The Shabazz's arrived just before game time and we loaded up in 2 cars and headed out. The Capps family (aka the Colts), Adam's squadron buddies, and others played for 2.5 hours...while the rest of us played armchair quarter back. Tobiah made it to the game too.

Notice Gavin was passed out AGAIN...

The aftermath...By 12:30...we had ran a race and played some football, now it was time to EAT! We ate around 3:00 that afternoon. Thanks to the efforts of our good friends the Katsotis's, we enjoyed a wonderful, non-traditional, Italian meal...including raviolis, lasagna, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, salad, fried okra, and Italian bread. It was grrrreaaatt!
I would have to say Gavin's first Thanksgiving was a success with lots of love and family time. We are very blessed, as a nation, family, and individuals. Thanks be to God, our Lord and Savior!
