Thanksgiving Weekend 2007

Well sadly our long holiday weekend is almost over. However, we did have a great time with family this weekend so we can't complain!

On Thursday morning Tom & I ran in the Turkey Trot. It went well for the most part but I sure was sore after "trotting" 3.1 miles. Then we all went to my parents' house for turkey & all the fixings. After eating too much we got into some epic games of Uno.

Gabe & Riley doing some serious strategizing...
Micaela & Kassidy
Even Jay & my mom got into the Uno action later on...(There's an ongoing battle between those two ever since my mom almost took Jay's head off with a line drive in wiffleball game a few years back).
We also got outside for a bit to play some football. Gabe scored about 25 touchdowns on me & Tom - he's tough to defend against!

Gabe & Papa Ron setting up their play.

On Saturday we took off for Glen Ullin to spend time with Jay's family. We of course ate too much again - but that's OK. Diet can always start on Monday! We also got into some game playing while the guys were out hunting and also later on that night. We also helped a bit with Christmas decorations.

McKenzie, Michaela, Sydney & Payton hanging out.

Kids playing Blokus

Grandpa playing some Dora Dominoes with the girls.

Sandy & Val involved in our Golf game. (By the way in case you forgot Lyns I won at Golf & at Hearts!) :)

Me & Payton just hanging out.

All in all it was a great weekend. We are just sad it's over. We know we will do it all over again on Christmas which is not very far away!

We hope everyone had as great of a Thanksgiving as we did!

Thanks for not telling anyone that you beat me at the Turkey Trot...it seems you win at everything.

Nobody else will see this, right?
