Thanksgiving started on Wednesday at our house, according to Jennifer anyway. The girls and I did a little baking to get ready for the busy days that were ahead. We made some Red Velvet Cookies and the girls looked pretty gross after licking the beaters. But they thought it was great, especially Mikayla. ( As you can see Jennifer cannot be left out!)
We spent Thursday with Bill's family, sorry no pictures, not sure why, I'm going to blame it on that there were a lot of kids, and they were just too busy to take any pictures! Friday we were off to celebrate Thanksgiving and an early Christmas with my family. Jennifer loves spending time with her family, especially her cousins.
The girls were very excited to get in a little swimming over Thanksgiving break. If you ask Jennifer about what she did over Thanksgiving she is quick to tell you she went to a hotel and went swimming.
Papa even went swimming with us!
Braving the cold to look at the pretty Christmas lights on the house.
The great-grand kids showing off their new Hawkeye shirts. They were all pretty excited about their new shirts, well Mikayla wasn't as thrilled as the other three but they all look pretty cute.
Jennifer was loving Molly this weekend. She would not leave her side, in fact I'm sure she would have gone home with Brandon and Molly, we kind of had to talk into coming home with us.
And as always a family picture before the weekend is over.
And after a fun filled few days spending time with family it was back home. And it was time to get out the Christmas decorations. Jennifer was very excited, I think if she had to she would have brought up each branch for the tree one at time from the basement. Lucky for her, her dad was just as excited and helped a little bit.
