Happy Thanksgiving! (this is 3 of 3)

We can't believe it has been a year since we came home from Palo Alto! We spent Thanksgiving last year in Salinas, CA with my sister-in-law and her family....this year we were here in Nevada! We had a great Thanksgiving and hope you did, too! We went to spend it with Kevin's family. They are amazing! We had so much fun! Good food! Lots of laughing and games and visiting! He has an amazing family and that was one of the many things I was grateful for (and always have been!)
Anyhow, here are some pictures of our weekend: (I thought I took more....but apparently forgot to get the camera out as often and I intended!)

Here is they typical basketball game! Notice Kevin is the oldest one out there! His nephew's and nephew-in-laws are getting to be a 'threat'! They are growing up!

We had a ping-pong table to play some games on. The kids really liked that.....so much the adults didn't get to play very much!

We did play a LOT of games this weekend! Learned some new and really fun ones like Bohnanza, Ticket to Ride and our favorite 'Nines'.

Here are the tables we ate at. Nathan patiently waiting at the kid's table (which I sat at to keep some of my kids in line) and then there is the adult table. Ryan and I made little pilgram hats out of fudge cookies and mini peanut butter cookies with a tick-tack as a buckle. I never did take a picture of it....sure tasted good! Kind of see them on the plate!


We had the traditional kick ball game for the little guys. Sammy and Daniel are really getting into it. Sammy even gave me 'thumbs up' on the last picture! He loved it!



Here Sammy and Daniel are both on base with hands on hips....can tell they are twins, huh?

Grandpa was reading to Daniel and I just loved watching them interact.


Anyhow, we had a great time! So good to see everyone there!
