Happy Thanksgiving 2013!

The Swints enjoyed a thoroughly wonderful day of giving thanks for many blessings.  Eden began the day enthralled with the characters of the Macy's thanksgiving parade...enTHRALLed.  Owen and Asher tore around the house and the yard full of anticipation for the big meal to come.  Nunu kept everyone busy and having fun while R & A prepped the food.  We filled the thanksgiving tree with our blessings:

And then, we ate.
Asher:  I feel like a full hippo!
Owen:  Who's not eating breakfast tomorrow? [Raises hand.]
