Wonderful Family Thanksgiving!!

It just doesn't get any better than this! Most of our family was together here at Panama City Beach, FL, at Daddy's beach house for our Thanksgiving celebration on the Saturday after Turkey Day. Daddy smoked turkeys and ham, Teresa made Mother's wonderful Cornbread Dressing and
Gravy and Pecan Pie, I made my Green Rice Casserole and Stuffed Celery and Hot Apple Cider , Debbie made Sweet Potato Casserole, Bobby's Slaw, and Corn Casserole. Nicole made Hash Brown Casserole and Brent did the Crescent Rolls. Brandi fixed Green Beans. Brannon made a wonderful Pumpkin Trifle. As usual, Bobby sliced all of the meat. Charlie, Bobby and the kids set up the tables and chairs on the deck. We followed our usual tradition of giving each other Christmas tree ornaments/gifties. Then Daddy presented each of us with VERY generous monetary gifts after we ate, a tradition he and Mother started many years ago. The weather was beautiful, the love was all around, and the day was perfect!!
