Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Thanksgiving 2011 was fabulous!!!  It was great times with even greater people, delicious food and tons of laughs had by all!!  I love how we have aunts and uncles and cousins that fly/drive in from all over the country so we can all be together to celebrate this special Holiday!!  This year my parents hosted Thanksgiving Dinner for 38 people and it was awesome!!  We enjoyed every moment of the annual Bowman family reunion!!  So here are the events and the tons of pictures I took this week!! 

Wednesday night was Italian night at the Kincaid's which was so much fun and ended (well for the Lossius family anyway) with Jackson falling in the pool only to pull himself out and to celebrate that he had fallen in the pool!! We secretly think he was hoping to go for a late night swim!! 

A boat ride with Pops that put Jackson to sleep while the girls were working in the kitchen!

Alexandra and Jackson hanging out together!

Then Thursday was Thanksgiving of course, hosted at my parents and what a fantastic dinner we had!  Everyone plays a part in making this party a success so thank you to everyone who made this day possible for all of us to enjoy!!
