Thanksgiving and getting ready for Christmas in Picayune

Jeff and I had Thanksgiving dinner with a large group of relatives here in Picayune.  There were about 50 or so people attending a potluck dinner outside at one relative’s house.  Great food, lots of good company!  The only downside was that I had laryngitis, so I was unable to carry on a conversation for more than a few minutes at a time.  But everyone understood.

This morning it was 31 outside when we got up, pretty cold for this area!  Here’s the pasture outside our door covered in frost:

We had lunch at my daughter’s in-laws house, just across the driveway from her house!  After lunch the guys got the christmas tree and all the ornaments down from the attic and the kids got to decorate the tree.  Here are a few pictures of the tree decorating:
