We spent Thanksgiving this year in Greenville, MS with a tiny part of my Dad's family. Uncle Leon, Grandmother's oldest sibling, and his 5 children, 1 son in law and 4 granddaughters are all in Greenville. We started this tradition a few years ago when they moved the Egg Bowl from Thanksgiving day to the Saturday after Thanksgiving. All the Lenoirs, except for Tommy, are State fans so we are a house/family divided every year! We had so much fun this year as we do every year!
Here's the whole group (minus Elizabeth)
We got up Friday morning and headed to Tupelo to stay at Rebecca and Tom's. We were in no hurry to get there so we stopped in Oxford to do a little shopping on the Square since we would be in the Grove on Saturday and wouldn't have time for shopping! BEG has also been craving Ajax macaroni and cheese since last year and we both LOVE Abner's so we stopped and got some lunch.
The Leaches' came from Starkville to Tupelo Friday evening for happy hour and some visiting. They have been in Starkville with the Clark's and were not going to be able to make it to the game on Saturday so we are so glad they came over so we could catch up with them! (My camera was in the car so we weren't able to get a photo!)
Saturday morning we got up and headed over to Oxford for the game. The weather was beautiful!! There was a slight nip in the air and it got downright cold at the game (6pm kickoff) but we were dressed and ready for the cold, long johns and all!!

Ran into my cousin Chris while wandering through the Grove
Although we didn't win the game we still had fun b/c we had given up the thought of actually winning a football game this year!! (And LSU lost!!!) =)
We hope that everyone had a blessed and relaxing Thanksgiving with loved ones.
