Thanksgiving is truly a day of "Giving Thanks" for the Barnes family. 25 years ago this weekend, Brent arrived on the scene. He was only 3 months ahead of schedule! He weighed in at 2 lbs. 14 oz. and was 15 inches long. Just look at him now! Dad couldn't resist the traditional birthday "spanking!" Love those expressive faces!
