Thanksgiving

We had a great weekend that went by wayyyyy to fast. Abby turned 2months old, turkey dinner, visitors, grandparents, more turkey, yard work and a wedding reception. My good friend Christine Thompson now Swift got married on Saturday and we went to her turkey day reception. alice danced the night away.. heres a story to tear at your heartstrings

Alice has always been an independant kid, there will be a whole room of kids and she is content playing in the corner with some toy. Shes happy if kids play with her but is quite happy playing alone. So we went to the wedding and she was running around dancing up a storm on the dance floor and then some other lil girls around ages 3 and 4 were dancing. Alice tried to join them but they walked away, so she continued to twirl on her own. then they 4 other girls paired off and began twirling with each other and then fall down and laughing. Alice put her hand out to one girl so she could twirl and the lil girl snubbed her and walked away and then Alice just kind of stood there like why won't you play with me look on her face. Then the four girls all held hands and danced while alice danced on her own outside of their circle. One girl tried to include her but then another girl in teh group said no. Poor lil alice just continued to twirl and dance regardless. It broke my heart to watch but made me happy that she got over it quickly and enjoyed herself regardless. If only we could protect them from all heartbreak and all the mean girls who might snub them but sadly we have to let them dance alone sometimes. Here are some pics from the wedding and the weekend.
