Thanksgiving on the Ranch

This year we had a great time spending Thanksgiving on the ranch in Baird with both of our families.  We had a wonderful fried turkey that my dad made and amazing side dishes that made the meal complete.  Sean had so much fun on his first Thanksgiving getting to be outside and seeing all the animals on the ranch.  He also got to take his very first horse ride with uncle Blan, which he absolutely loved!  This year we have so much to be thankful for including our precious baby boy, our health, our wonderful family that show us unconditional love on a daily basis, and most of all, for the hope we have in Christ Jesus! 


Sean's first Thanksgiving


Uncle Odom took the camera out early Thanksgiving morning and captured
some amazing pictures of the cold morning on the ranch.

Daddy's 30th Birthday

We had so much fun celebrating Jim's 30th birthday on November 3rd!  It was even more special this birthday having daddy's little buddy there to help unwrap gifts.  We had a great evening eating delicious lasagna and opening up gifts.  Happy birthday Jim, to a wonderful husband and daddy to Sean Wheeler!

The best surprise of all behind all those gifts!
