Thanksgiving Blessings

Thanksgiving was at our house this year!  Though our entire family was not able to be in town to join us this year, we did have a wonderful time admiring the three beautiful little boys pictured above; two of whom were celebrating their very first Thanksgiving.  In the photo above, from left to right are Spencer Hatch and Jackson Hatch, sons of Michael and Alicia Hatch and on the right is Cutter Laramore, son of Kevin and Katie LaramoreSpencer is 9 months old, Jackson is 2-1/2 years old and Cutter is 5 months old.

In addition to Michael, Alicia, Katie, Kevin and children, also joining us were Sean Hatch, Troy Clark and Renee NewittSean and Troy brought festive holiday cocktails that combined prosecco, triple sec and ginger vodka, Alicia brought her grandmother’s recipe  yummy yeast rolls, and Renee brought three kinds of pie; pumpkin, pecan and Heavenly cherry pie!  And of course, there was enough pie that everyone could try any one or all three!  I had never tried the Heavenly pie before and it was delicious!

We all feasted and gave thanks for our many blessings of family and loved ones; both those with us and those far away that we missed.
