Turkey Day

Larkin has lots of Thanksgivings!  It started last weekend with the Taylor's.
 Then on to the Gillespie's where 56 people filled Mamaw's new condo to the brim.  Kids EVERYWHERE.
 Larkin hung out with the other kid near his age - Baby Carter.
 Then he tried to eat Baby Carter.  So he had to play with the grown ups for a while.
 We had some interesting photo shoots.  It's been a while since this many Gillespie's were all together.  So many of us split holidays with our in-laws that it is rare for most of us to be at the same place at the same time.  This Thanksgiving happened to be one of the big ones.  So we took lots of pictures.  Here are most of the great-grandkids.
 Just missing 4.  And two were there, but right outside of the picture throwing fits.  Oh, and of course there is one more on the way.  Someone is always pregnant.  Not me this time. 
Larkin had a good time with Erica's hair.
 We just repeated "Keeping smiling Erica!  Baby Larkin likes your hair; we'll get him in a second!"  She was a trooper.

Then on to the Grandkids.  Missing just 5 of them.  And no, I'm not squatting.  I'm just that short.
 Ah, the laughing picture.  Mamaw fits right in with her girls.
 And her kids.
 The Gillespie's are goofy.  We have a good time when we're together, though.

Then, on the the Link's for Thanksgiving - also known as winter birthday party.  For Aunt Shara...
 Nikki...
 And Joe!  Why is Larkin the only one in a pointy hat?
 We had cake after our turkey (lunch meat).

 Before the end of the night Larkin had to plot out his Black Friday game plan.
 And this is what that ended up like...
Yes, we are a bunch of Turkeys.  You fit right in, Larkin!
