food hangover + football let downs

ive had a food hangover since thursday about 4:00pm. after a great thanksgiving meal, a long walk, a very active football game, and continuous eating for 4 days, i think im done. dangit.

it was a wonderful and busy holiday, with 26 people hanging out at my parents home. i laughed a lot and was completely happy and content. its a wonder what the comfort of home can do for you. a not so good football weekend for either fsu, gt, or auburn, but a good football weekend for my thanksgiving game as qb with a 4th and 1 conversion. ah, i miss the south.

my wonderful aunt barbara, master gardener and even better woman.

oh, atlanta

this is how i spent my thanksgiving

welcome back to colorado

southbound

in anticipation of my trip to the homeland (ATL) for my favorite food holiday of the year, ive decided to post some pictures of what i am thankful for...

seeing this skyline every once in a while. fulfills my fondness for cities and the south.

my beautiful future sister-in-law and my handsome brother.

real. live. southern. home cookin. the best all you can eat pit-stop for 3 days straight.

those two lovely women standing beside me. inspiring. faithful. loving. encouraging. supportive. and the best back-scratchers around. is it wrong that i am a 24-year-old woman who still likes to crawl into my mother's lap and pretend i am an 8-year-old girl? maybe. but its home.

thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. without going on forever (and i could), it is a time where all of my family gathers, laughter is non-stop and real, food is plentiful, home is comfort, and contentment is the ultimate feeling. i am thankful for so many things in my life, most importantly, love and faith, which thanksgiving at home encompasses both. ill be sure to post pics from the trip southbound.
