Thanksgiving with Marissa and Cayson

 

Since Mark and I are staying at Jessica and Tate's apartment, and Marissa has Thanksgiving break off, she came down to be with us for Thanksgiving.  Mark and I had hoped to have Thanksgiving with Devon and Sierra since we normally can't be they decided to have Thanksgiving Dinner with her parents. 

So - what does Marissa want to do for Thanksgiving Dinner - you guessed it - Cracker Barrel.  
We let Cayson finish his nap, and then we drove down to Springville for Cracker Barrel.  We didn't realize there would be such a wait, but of course, there was.  We browsed the store while we waited.  Cayson had fun playing with some of their toys.  

 

Finally our names were called.  Dinner is served!  Mark got the traditional Thanksgiving dinner, while Marissa got pancakes and I got French toast!  Cayson just ate off all three plates.  We had a great time and made a great memory!


Look at him - isn't he so cute!  I adore Cayson!




I'm so glad Marissa could be with us!  She is a delight to have around.



When we got home it was more time to play with Cayson!!!



We are so grateful for so many things - our health, our family - our wonderful in-laws!  How blessed we are!
