(Verse 1)
Pulled up to Doug and Krista’s, that house was lookin’ new
Fresh paint, warm lights, felt like heaven peekin’ through
They opened up the door with kindness, said “Y’all come right in”
Scout ran in with Jazzy, Snicker — tails waggin’ wide grins
(Pre-Chorus)
Every kid from Jaxon down to little Bo
Family filled the place, heart overflowed
(Chorus)
Thanksgiving at Doug and Krista’s
Laughter echoing off the walls
Stories, hugs, and dogs playin’ chase down the halls
It was turkey and love, a home filled right up
Memories we’ll treasure forever
Oh, Thanksgiving at Doug and Krista’s
Was the best one ever
(Verse 2)
Dylan and Brooke brought sweet baby Nora, stealin’ every heart
Abbi and Paden laughin’, never wanting to part
Missin’ Kate down in Dominican, spreadin’ Jesus and light
But she’s with us in our thoughts every prayer every night
(Pre-Chorus)
Pickleball plans and a turkey on the smoker
Love gets louder the longer we stay over
(Chorus)
Thanksgiving at Doug and Krista’s
Laughter echoing off the walls
Stories, hugs, and dogs playin’ chase down the halls
It was turkey and love, a home filled right up
Memories we’ll treasure forever
Oh, Thanksgiving at Doug and Krista’s
Was the best one ever
(Bridge) (fun + upbeat with a grin)
Will and Crew binge Stranger Things — four episodes straight
Girls show up, he’s like “hey what’s your name?” — yeah that was great
Bo and Beckham glued to monsters, Demogorgons in the night
And those games — Secret Hitler — woo we played ’em with some fight
Barefoot quarterback in the turkey bowl — those Warden rules don’t lie
All-time QBs turned full speed, we were young again for a while
Doug yelled “Brooke’s a psycho!” but it’s all love in this tribe
’Til Izzy got sick and we all caught the vibe
(Breakdown / heartfelt moment)
We shared what we’re thankful for, one by one
Family, faith, this life… and how blessed we’ve become
(Final Chorus)
Thanksgiving at Doug and Krista’s
Warm hearts in the cold fall air
Every second together reminds us God hears every prayer
It was turkey and love, a home filled right up
I’ll remember this now and forever
Oh, Thanksgiving at Doug and Krista’s
Yeah, that was the best one ever
(Tag)
So here’s to family and nights like these
Where the joy comes easy, and love comes free
