Emma celebrated her first Thanksgiving. It all began at Nana and Goddy's Tuesday night. Rob went hunting so Emma and I had a sleep over at Nana and Goddy's. On Wednesday, we ate a big feast prepared by Nana and I-we had so much food they will be eating leftovers for days. That evening we met Dean and Theresa (our dear friends from Georgia) for coffee. They were passing through to see their son Matthew in Washington D.C. Thursday morning, Emma and I drove to Covington to see Grandma and Grandpa Lane for another Thanksgiving feast. Daddy was so happy to us and we were happy to see him. Besides the great feast in Covington Emma crawled for the first time. It was only a few moves at a time but we were lucky to get it on video. After Emma crawled she got to hold the camera that we used to entice her with to crawl. She took a great picture of herself.
We were sad that this year we did not get to see Meme, Brian, Nate, Matthew, Beth, Bernie and Anna-Grace. We did talk several times over the weekend to stay in touch but it wasn't the same.
All in all we had a Happy Thanksgiving. We say it often that we are so blessed to have Emma and of course we will say it again. She is the most wonderful part of our lives. We can't imagine what our lives would be like without her.

Wow - Emma is beautiful but the old people from Georgia are something else!!! We had a great time visiting everyone and so enjoyed all the babies. Love to you all.
