Happy Thanksgiving!!

Ella's first Thanksgiving (out of the womb) and there was lots of fun and food to be had. We headed down to Rhode Island to visit Ella's family. We stopped first at Great Aunt Bette and Great Grandma Reed's house. Ella and Great Grandma played with paper, one of Ella's favorite toys...

She got suprised by a present to open by Aunt Bette... (which for Ella's first time at unwrapping a present - she did an amazing job - she is in good shape for her birthday and Christmas!)

Then it was off to Nana's house for dinner. Mom made Ella's plate with turkey, corn, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, and green beans. Mom was a little worried that she took too much but Ella proved her wrong...

She washed it all down by showing everyone her sippy cup skills... (with only a few throws of the sippy cup on the floor).

Then it was time to help Dad open some birthday gifts. Ella was fascinated by all of the ribbons and bows.

And to play with cousin Grace.

She even showed Grace how much she loves to push every button she can find.

For Ella's first Thanksgiving it was a lot of fun, a lot of family, and some yummy food. Thank you to all who shared it with us.
