Thanksgiving at "The Dads"...

Can I just say that I LOVE my family! Thanksgiving with the family is never uneventful let's just say! So a few of the boys (the dad too) may be a little unconventional and downright loony at times, but I still love 'em anyway. :)

Thanksgiving at my dad's house was a blast... the house was full to the brim with chaos, but that's pretty normal these days! The food was great and the company even better... I would have to say that the highlight of my day was the 3 hour nap I got to take! Nette kept an eye on the girls for me and I slept until forever... It was blissful! After dinner the boys and Kayla played a game of basketball (I wish I had been awake to take a few pics and play a little too), apparently Kayla dominated the boys... my guess is that they were thinking that because she's a girl they shouldn't guard her... BIG MISTAKE!!! That girl made 9 three-pointers... go Kayla... that's my girl! After the big basketball game we stuffed ourselves full of pie (there were 7 to choose from... don't ask!) and started decorating for Christmas... all in all it was a great day!


My little brother Travis started this tradition a few years ago where everyone tells about something they are grateful for... I was a little surprised... a close family was at the top of everyones list (almost)... Bill is grateful for girls and snowboarding (no surprise there!). As for my girls, this is what they had to say...

*Kayla is grateful for her family (even Cammy), all of her friends and her artistic talents! hmmmm.
*Cammy is grateful for her mom (that's me btw!), her friends and her cousins.
*Krystian is grateful for Mom, Nette and Nana, Maggie too and puppies and kitties... oh and her sisters!
