Giving Thanks In Richmond

Thanksgiving weekend came, and we went to Richmond to celebrate with our families. We're always grateful that both of our families live in the same city, so we don't have to choose where we'll spend the holidays. The pleasant November weather continued in Richmond with sunny skies on Turkey Day. Gobble gobble!



Tommy wanna cracker?

The backstory to the following sequence of photos goes like this: Tommy was so excited to get to Granny and Pop's house for Thanksgiving that he started running up the sidewalk to the front steps. Before we could catch up to him, he fell and scratched the pad of his hand. Well, he sure milked as much sympathy as he could from those in attendance, showing them all his grievous injury and furrowing his brow in obvious disdain for his lax parents who were not paying close enough attention to prevent it.

Finally, family friend Karin showed Tommy that all it takes is a little healing breath to make things feel better.

After eating, David and Tommy had fun ripping through the leaves in the backyard.

After a quick rest, it was over to Lola's house to join the Heraldos in giving thanks.

The Karaoke machine got turned on, and Tommy showed off his moves to Billie Jean sung by cousin Sarah. Check out the video below for some serious groovin to MJ.
