This was our second Thanksgiving as a family, and the first time in six years that I got to spend it with my family in Virginia. It was all the more enjoyable because I’d missed celebrating with my family so much!
First Thanksgiving in Virginia for our family!
Mio pointing at the turkey. She was excited about the “big bird.”
Already getting a head start on dinner…
Pretty girls! Mio with Auntie Miwa.
Mio and Mama, both excited about Thanksgiving dinner!

Can’t wait to dig in! We all worked together to make such an amazing meal!
The family at dinner.
Dan is a pro at carving the turkey!
Dan made the most delicious skin-on mashed potatoes!
Getting piggy-backed by Uncle Ted, running around the house!
After stuffing ourselves like the turkey that we ate, we spent the rest of the evening playing board games and spending quality time together with the whole family! 🙂
AMio and I stacking blocks together.
Mio was so cautious…
She did such a great job stacking them high!
Clapping at herself for doing a great job building her block tower. 🙂
We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday, full of laughter and love shared with family and friends! I love this time of year! 🙂
