Thanksgiving

Well, all went as planned for our little family announcement! Taryn did a fantastic job with her blessing! We went all out and let Taryn do the blessing for both family dinners. She and I practiced in the bedroom before dinner at my parents. Both Mom and Dad were fine with her saying it, but Mom wanted to give Anna the chance to sing her song as well........ once Taryn said, "Amen." My mom cut her off right in the middle of "and God bless......" Funny! Both Mark and I perked up and told them she wasn't finished yet! They let her finish and were thrilled. Then is was Anna's turn. :) I don't have any video of that event, but I was armed and ready at Mark's Parents! We all gathered around the kitchen island as there was not enough room for 11 folks in the dining room. I had the camera perched on the bakers rack and had told everyone that Mark and I wanted to make sure we had her saying the blessing on video, and what better time to do it than at Thanksgiving!!!!! Miss T did her thing, and it took a minute or two, but the room erupted in cheer! I will post it once I can figure out how to retrive it in usable format from my home computer! All in all, it was perfect! We are set up to do it again on Sunday as we get to tell my aunt, and cousin........mother and sister of the cousin, Megan, who has painstakingly kept our little secret from them for weeks! Thanks, Meggie! :)
