Thanksgiving: Part 1

We are lucky enough to live within a half hour of Michael's parents.
With that said, we are also lucky enough to party when siblings stop by for a weekend visit.
And play when they come for the holidays. We love being close to the action:)

Michael's entire family was together for Thanksgiving this year.
That is two parents, six siblings and six spouses and twenty-one grandchildren.
Two families stayed with us, and we ended up hosting Thanksgiving dinner at our home.
The week flew by and we had a blast with everyone.

One of Michael's brother and his family came the weekend before. 
We stole a couple of the kids to come spend the night. It was Annie's birthday, so we made waffles.
It's becoming a birthday tradition at our house. 

 Cousins watching a movie together.  They could never get quite comfortable enough.

An all adult dinner (missing one couple) at Johnny Carino's, followed by a date to The Hunger Games
Such a fun night! Thanks CJ, Carson and Mom and Dad for making it possible.

Cousin sleepover. We only had to go in and warn the two little girls a few times.

 

 

 Annual Christmas in the Night Sky the day after Thanksgiving. 
Max and Sam were both asleep, so Michael and Kat were the only ones who braved the cold.
The fireworks were beautiful and we had a perfect view.
