A Southern Thanksgiving

In early November the whole family made a trip to see my brother and his family in Georgia to celebrate an early Thanksgiving. We had such a good visit, complete with a feast and family pictures and plenty of play time for the kids. The pictures are slightly out of order and I am having technical difficulties and running short on time :(
 

Ima and Pops, that looks like a lot of space over there at the Waffle House counter!



I think Grant is actually the only one asleep in this picture. This was before dinner! We were slightly delayed due to family pictures but the in-laws (Sara and Brandon) have come to expect late dinners with the Hellers!
This is the guys playing "do you know how to do this with your phone?" and the girls in their matching tea cup pj's!

Elizabeth and Grant absolutely dote on Megan!
Because David likes to give us cultural experiences we all went to the Waffle House for breakfast. 
The look on the lady's face when we said "there are 9 of us" was priceless.  I think she said something like "We don't have tables that big" and walked away! Ima and Pops sat at the counter and the rest piled into what would normally be a 2 person booth, but because we all really like each other it was not a problem at all!



Apparently you don't cook Thanksgiving dinner with a shirt on in Georgia - oh wait that's just David being David. And I have a son who doesn't really like to wear pants - perhaps this runs in the family. I promise the rest of the girls kept their tops on!
Doesn't everyone eat Thanksgiving dinner at 9:00 pm? Poor Megan missed the turkey!
The feast is finally ready!
