Yesterday was Thanksgiving. The entire family gathered at Mom and Dad J's house. I made the mashed potatoes and baked some cookies. It was really neat to see.
My parents, Frank, Grace, Joan, Nick, Faith, Phil, Me, Mariana, Maddy, Meghan, Alan, Lily, Mom and Dad, Caitie, Josh, Hannah, Josh's mom (whose name escapes me, sorry), Beth, Kristina, Alyson, and Nikki all gathered for dinner... I don't think I forgot anyone... I do hope not. Being part of the Clark and Johnston family for so long, I've really gotten to see it grow. Phillip and I have been together for 10 years... So although we've only been married for over 3 of them, I've felt part of this family for far longer. We had a fantastic dinner. After everyone played Rock Band on the PS3. It's amazing how wonderful our family is as a whole.
Lily and Maddy are both getting so big and didn't lack for arms to hold them. Mariana entertained people with her adorable antics and speeches. Faith and Nick played with everyone and charmed them with their huge smiles. Family is such a joy.
On a different note, the napping schedule and such seems to be helping with Mariana's nights.
