We were so blessed to share a rip-roarin' Thanksgiving with most of the family at the Baughman family compound in Sunnyvale, Texas. Ron and Mary were so gracious to allow all the Griffin in-laws and outlaws to convene there for extended eating and general cutting up. I sure hope somebody cleaned it up nice after we left!
Those smiles are all about being thankful to be together for another Thanksgiving!
It was great to have the Matthew Griffins in from Midland and the Ryan Hopkins in from Stillwater, OK.
We can get them going!
Mawmaw and a few of her Great-grands.

Part of the cookin' crew, thanks guys!
Gettin' hugs from Mawmaw.
Bridgette came bearing gifts; handmade full-sized quilts for Morgan, Emma and Viola. Such a blessing!
Carefully custom designed with preferred colors.
Mawmaw noted that if we found this quilt missing, we would know that she had pilfered it!
This is the 'log cabin' pattern.

Thomas Baughman.
We made a run to the new Union Coffee House that is a new ministry of the United Methodist Church in Dallas, under the directorship of Mike Baughman. Mike treated us all to the specialties of the house.
My sweet granddaughters, Mercedes and Viola. A rainbow had appeared while we were at the coffee house, and we had run outside to enjoy it.

We think Thomas is just THE cutest!
A few days later we were further blessed to have Kate and her girls come help decorate the tree at our house. Evangeline was doing her part. Love the ballerina skirt!
Pooter lovin' on her baby doll.
Mercedes is lookin' so grown up.
Best buds! GG and Mercedes (she had a grape in her mouth!)
More best buds! Pooter is rather selective about who she graces with her hugs. We have so much to be thankful for, and give thanks to the Father of all blessings.
