Thanksgiving


We had a GREAT dinner with AWESOME people! Ang & Jed graced our presence and David & Jana Coreless joined us as well.

While we were playing games, we noticed it got really quiet. Little Mary was helping herself to some vegetables, but mostly dip :). She needed some white gloves to go with her princess dress. Mom, look at the dress she is wearing. It is the dress you made Sydney for Amanda's wedding that is now in our costume box. It is always a hit with the little girls.

The kids were patiently waiting for their Thanksgiving dinner. We had 11 kids there that day.

Matt and Charlotte chilling after dinner. Looks like Matt is searching for some great Black Friday specials. He and Jed stayed out all night shopping. They even slept in sleeping bags at Sports Authority. I heard Matt had a mighty snore. They got some great deals at Wal Mart and Sports Authority.

All of the kids the night before Jed and Ang left. Tears were shed that they were leaving :(.

One of many games of Beans that were played. We also played the name game and charades with the kids.

Notice the sly smile on Jed's face. He must be working one of his many deals in Beans.

While we were playing in one room, the kids set up their own game in the next.

We really had a great time! It flew by way too fast. Ang & I were able to make a quick stop at Sam Moon and catch Breaking Dawn (which we really liked by the way, but we really were missing Amanda's cat calls). Matt and Jed were able to play some rounds at Top Golf and literally shopped till they dropped during the wee hours Friday morning. We took the kids to a couple of parks and they just played, played, played!! We really put in the good word for Dallas hoping that one day they really will move here. I told Angela though that if she moved close to us that we would get nothing accomplished :).

I hope you all had a very Happy Thanksgiving. We sure missed you all and extend an open invitation to any and all who would like a Texas getaway.
