Thankful: for cuddles

It's rare that Mike and I have the opportunity to take pictures of our own families. Everyone is spread out across the country and only comes together once or twice a year around the holidays. This year, we took full advantage of so many family members being together for Thanksgiving. We had so much fun on all three of our family photo shoots. Each of them gave us something to be thankful for and filled us with the holiday spirit.

We really miss living close by to Mike's sister and brother-in-law and their two adorable little boys. It's hard to look at these two brothers and not smile. They just radiate happiness, the whole family does. They smile with their eyes. And to take it up a notch on the cuteness scale, these two guys are real cuddlers. They are pros at giving mom, dad, Auntie Jen and Uncle Mike frequent big hugs. Only problem is Auntie Jen and Uncle Mike never want to let go!
