Thanks and Flu

This year has us counting our thanks more than ever!  It is the antidote to crying all the time, after all. The hardships press down, more thanks are needed!
I got to celebrate Thanksgiving lunch at the littles school.
Sweet date with my little man!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day was Shiloh's turn!
And Zoe was able to join us!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Beach and I had a special chance to participate in a very elegant Friendsgiving.
While his food choices may be limited, Beach can have Turkey.  I'm excited to be with my hot hubby!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not so glamorous....the kids got the flu (starting after us coming home from our Friendsgiving), so we were home for Thanksgiving day.
Shiloh prefers silly faces.
Much snuggles and watching Macy Day parade.
Daddy still made his infamous gluten free waffles that were amazing, even if it was just us!
And the Pilgrims.
And more parade and dog show.
Then nap time with the smallest sick one.
They were up for a little decorating, though.  Shiloh's happy place.
Ezra's turn for the star.
The girls were happy to have their own little tree.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day, when we thought we were finally completely in the clear, we celebrated with all our family.  (Zoe ended up getting sick the next morning that lasted the entire week, so we managed to squeeze in this day of family fun in between it all.)
The cousins!
The Grand Lovelands joined us as well.
Will tickle to get the smiles...
We read all our thanks together out loud after dinner...
....and guessing who wrote what...
So much to be thankful for!
Found the littles in the attic reading later that night - ha!
While not the Thanksgiving we planned, we were so glad that we could finally get together between quarantining!
