Sunday Snapshot: {the evidence}

Other than these two pictures – and the little “thankful” tree we made – there is no evidence that we even celebrated Thanksgiving.

I guess I took my decision to be in the moment seriously. So seriously, in fact, that I only got my camera out twice.

And each time I only took a handful of pictures.

I think these two are a pretty good representation of our time together – with my sister and her family here.

Nothing spectacular. But, below the surface, something quite special.

A little silly.

And – most definitely – blessed.

Hope y’all had a blessed Thanksgiving, too.

If you want to play along with Sunday Snapshot this week, the rules have recently changed. Visit here for the full scoop.

    I don’t think it mattered at all that you only got a few shots – you’ve captured it all here.

    Happy Thanksgiving!!! That is great! There is nothing “not so special” about family. It is the best and you are creating great memories for yourself.

    Hi Stephanie! My computer had a virus and I haven’t been able to visit the blog in a little while 🙂 Are you not picking winners anymore? Just curious…
    Happy Thanksgiving!
