Hank meets the Dukes

Hank met some of Katie's family during the weekend after Thanksgiving. Aunt Kay, Uncle Billy and Lauren met Hank while they were traveling through Birmingham. Since they live out of town, it is always good to see them whenever we can. Hank and Chase both had fun.

The visit lasted through Chase's naptime. He decided to take a nap on the couch next to Daddy.

Getting our tree!

The day after Thanksgiving, Chase decided to start his day looking at the ads in the paper :) Drew and I were looking at the paper and Chase decided to look too!


Next, we got ready to go pick out our Christmas tree...Chase and Hank got on two of their matching Christmas outfits...




We went to a place in Springville (right down the road from Mama Zo and Pops' house) to get our tree. We went to the same place last year, so we decided to go there again. We had a great time...Chase had a great time playing and we were so glad that we also had Hank to help us pick out our tree this year!

Thanksgiving Day

On Thanksgiving Day, we went to Drew's Granny and Grandaddy's house. We had a great time with family and we were so glad that Hank decided to come into this world a little early so that we were able to go! Hank loved getting to meet Granny and Grandaddy, and Chase enjoyed himself as always!
Here is Hank with his Mama Zo and Pops...

Chase had fun playing with the dogs that hang around Granny and Grandaddy's house....thankfully, they are sweet dogs (Chase thinks every dog wants him to love on them like he does Ruby)...

The Cochran family...

After we got home, Peg-P and Gran came over to visit and to see Chase and Hank (Hunter, Anna, and Alex spent Thanksgiving with her family this year so we celebrated early with my family). Here is Peg-P with Hank...


Hank in his turkey outfit...we did not know if Hank would be with us for Thanksgiving, but what a blessing it was that he came a little bit early!
