Turkey, Pies and Christmas Trees


Whew.... it sure went fast but what a great Thanksgiving we had!! All of my sisters and brothers were able to be together with Grandpa and Grandma Miller this year for Thanksgiving!
It was such a great time with lots and lots of delicious food and just as many laughs! After stuffing our bellies with all that food, us kids loaded our pickups with saws, boots, gloves, and oh yeah.....KIDS!! Kilgore here we come....making our yearly journey to find Christmas trees! This year we went to a bit of a different place and was able to find some trees pretty quickly. And then after getting our trees it was back to Grandpa and Grandma's for pie. And there were lots of different kinds of pie to choose from!!

Rowdy and Bryndi with our big(Charlie Brown)Christmas tree.
Britton with his prize tree.
This one was me and Bryndi's favorite so.......
I cut it down!!

Perfect tree for the kids to decorate. I always have a small one the kids decorate and then our big family Christmas tree that mom gets to decorate.

Here is Kade and Zach discussing their pretty trees.
Mark towing a Christmas tree up the hill.

And three of the Rigby kids....the other one didn't really want her picture taken at that time!
Just hanging out enjoying every minute! (Thanks for the pic Kelly)
What a beautiful Thanksgiving day in Kilgore. I'm excited to see how everyone's Christmas trees turn out once they're covered in decorations!! Thanks family for an awesome day!!
