We had a really wonderful Thanksgiving. We realized that everyone is healthy and safe and happy, so we had many blessings to be thankful for.
On Wednesday, as family started to arrive in town, we took Lilla to see the horses near Mike's house. She was a little hesitant at first about such a big animal, but wasn't scared to touch them at all.
Most of the horses had been taken away because of the cold weather, but there were still a few left to pasture. We ran into one of the field hands who said we were more than welcome to go out in the pasture and see all the horses.
So we did, and one horse took a particular like to Jay and Lilla. He kept following them around and trying to nuzzle Lilla's hair. We suspect he thought it was some type of hay.
When Jay got Lilla on his shoulders and away from the horse, the horse calmed down. Lilla was still a little tense, and clutching Jay's hair.
Our Thanksgiving meal was delicious, and because we went out to eat, there was no cooking or clean up, which made it even better! Haynes and Lilla had a fun time at lunch together.
We did try and get some pictures after lunch, but once we got home, and close to naptime, Lilla would have none of it. While I tried to snap a picture, she clung to Jay's leg and cried, which made us all laugh a little.
But then she got over it, and I was able to get this quick picture of her in her cute smocked dress.
