Thanksgiving

Matt and I headed to my parents house for Thanksgiving. My brother and sister also came with their families. We had a great time playing board games, pinochle, football and of course eating a lot of food. Thanksgiving always has the best leftovers. The kids loved playing with their cousins. On Friday, we did the right thing and got up at 4:50 to go shopping (What were we thinking?). My parents live about 30 miles from a town that has the big stores. The good thing was that the lines at the stores we went to were short. We got the things that we wanted and arrived back at my parents house around 7:40am. The children hadn't even woke up yet. The weather was so pretty on Saturday and Sunday. The kids enjoyed going to the park and playing football. We love this time of year. Now, it is officially legal for me to play Christmas music.

Matt had such a busy work schedule that I packed all of his clothes for our 4 day trip. My sister-in-law also packed my brother Matt's clothes and when they came out of their rooms to help with Thanksgiving, they were twins. We had a good laugh on that one.

Paige and McKenna look a lot alike and I think that people could mistake them for fraternal twins.
