Our Thanksgiving!

Our Thanksgiving was a great one this year! Mac's family came to our house for Thanksgiving this year! It was so fun to have everyone at our house! We had Rebecca, Dave, Peggy, Kimberly, Bennett, Rachel and their 3 kids! We had a full house but we all had a great time!

Jordan, Kimney and Hannah playing a card game!

 

Kode, Bry, Kris, and Bennett playing a little ball!

 

Cooking Thanksgiving dinner was lots of fun! Everyone helped with all of the food!

It was so nice that not only 1 or 2 people had to do all of the cooking. We socialized, snacked, told stories and laughed a lot while we cooked!

 

Kode just loved being in the kitchen helping out where ever he could! Grandma Peggy taught him how to make stuffing!

 

Bry, Hannah, Isaac and Jordan played the Wii, played board games, and played in the back yard. They had a great time just hanging out!

 

Just putting the finishing touches on the stuffing!

Great Job Kode!

 

Mac got a really cool cook book from Roger a few months ago and in that book it had a recipe that recommends you cook your turkey on the BBQer! So he decided to give it a try. The turkeys were so good and moist! This picture does not make the turkeys look very good. But they were so good. I would defiantly BBQ turkeys again!

 

Dave brought a spiral ham. So him and Mac decided to cook it in the dutch oven! The ham was wonderful! I am not sure why food is so much better in the dutch oven but it is!

So the boys are checking on the ham!

Everyone enjoyed playing basketball in the basement!

Mac shooting a few hoops!

Rachel and Bennett enjoyed competing against each other to see who could score the most points in one minute! It was fun to see everyone enjoying playing basketball!

 

Dave and Rebecca brought a very fun card game called The Great Delmonti!

Its a card game for all ages. Old and young! We played that game for hours!

Here are just a few of us playing the card game!

 

Isaac and Jordan playing battleship!

 

I am not sure what we were thinking but some of us decided to venture out on Thursday night and check out the black Friday/Thursday sales. The parking lot was so crazy (as a matter of fact when we were pulling into the parking lot there were 2 ambulance's pulling out) but we decided we still wanted to see what this black Friday sales was all about!

Just about to walk into the chaos!

 

We all found a little bit of something that we wanted to purchase for a Christmas gift! None of us had ever been Black Friday shopping before. It was interesting to say the least. Most people in the store were going crazy on the movies, games, and TVs! None of us were interested in any of that stuff. But those people that are there for that stuff were a little crazy and they were doing just about anything to get what they wanted! But all in all our venture out to the store was not very bad!

 

Anyway our Thanksgiving was a great one! Thanks to all of Mac's family for driving to our house for Thanksgiving! It was fun to have you at our house!
