We left Wednesday afternoon to head to the lake and we picked up Charles on the way. We had a FULL house! Wednesday and Thursday we had 7 adults and 2 munchkins and on Friday and Saturday, Clint and Carla joined us so we were up to 9 adults. I know you can't believe we can sleep 9 in that small house but we can! We just all have to go to bed at the same time. hahaha!
Thanksgiving Day was great!! We ate really good and had some healthier choices on the menu! The guys were cussing Weight Watchers that day! hahaha! Don't feel too bad for them because they rolled away from the table happy and gut full. The girls took a nap while we ate our big meal. Then we fed them their first Thanksgiving meal at dinner time. They LOVED it!! Emi made outfits for the girls. They were TURKEYS!! They were the cutest turkeys ever! Emi of course came out as Pocahontas, the rest of us were indians and pilgrims. Gotta love Thanksgiving!






Derek raked leaves and the girls helped. Ava was scared of the leaves and just stood to the side holding her rake. Not Grace...she jumped right in! That was a lot of fun to play in the leaves.




Friday, Clint and Carla got there in time to make breakfast! YUM! Carla got in some good play time with the girls while Clint cooked breakfast.


Derek and Chris headed to Walmart to see if they could get some deals. I told them the deals were at 4am, not 9am. haha! They came back with $2 movies. We were going to cut down a Christmas tree at the tree farm but it was rainy and yucky outside so we stayed home.
We watched movies and played with the girls. That night we played Apples to Apples since there was 9 of us. That was a lot of fun!
Saturday, the weather was a lot nicer. We took the girls outside and they ran up and down the road. It was cute cause they would look at each other and scream then run really fast the other way. haha!





Grace was the first to fall and landed on her face. We didn't notice how bad it was til we got inside and saw it was puffy and red on her left side of her face. She got bruised and banged up - poor baby.

Ava fell a couple times too but no injuries. The guys were outside throwing the football and the girls helped run the ball too! We headed home after dinner since Sunday was 35% off day at JCPenney.
Derek and I are so thankful we can spend our holiday with our families and share it with the girls. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and enjoyed their long weekend with family and friends.
