The First Thanksgiving

On the first Thanksgiving, the Pilgrims met the Native Americans and -- oh, wait, this is about Ian's first Thanksgiving. Ian enjoyed Thanksgiving in Bedford, VA, where his great-aunt and uncle Faith and Bob live. It is a beautiful ruralish area about 2.5 hours from Raleigh. In attendance were Faith and Bob, cousins Danny and Jennifer, the Esteemed Aunt Julie and Eli, Grammie and Pa (as they have been dubbed), and us. We had a very nice traditional Thanksgiving dinner, complete with creamed onions and mincemeat pie:



While we ate, Ian entertained himself:



Then he enjoyed his own Thanksgiving dinner (that's right, rice cereal!):



Eating wasn't the only reason we went to Bedford, there was also play time with Aunt Julie!:
