Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Day started at Mark's house.  He reserved his Clubhouse since he lives in a condo now.  I had to bring Green Bean Casserole, Mexi Dip and yams.  WHAT?  Yes I had to bring yams. I have never made yams.  I bought these Sweet Potatoes in a can since I had no idea what to do.   People actually ate them, so maybe they were ok.  I looked at them and there were no marshmallows on the top.  I think when someone took the aluminum foil off they took the marshmallows off too...:)

We had a great time.  These are random pictures of people.  We had a great time. 

                                      This is Abi who did the Turkey Craft that Michelle provided.

                             

This is Abi's Bingo Prize.  Everyone got a prize for Bingo.  I didn't take many pictures of  Bingo though.

Brooke and Ty

This pic is of my family.  All my kids were there.  Made my whole holiday.  

These few pics aren't that great...

Everyone wanted to be in our family picture...

There are a million of these family pics but these are the greatest people around. I thought they all showed our different personalities.

A Surprise for Thanksgiving

So, Wednesday before Thanksgiving we have off from school.  I went to the gym, then home.  I was getting in the car to leave, and I saw a white car drive up...I was like dang...who's coming to talk to me.  THEN I got a facetime call from Brooke and I see her walking up the driveway!  WHAT?  My Brooke just showed up at my house the day BEFORE thankgiving.  I was soo happy. 

Her friend, Ty's aunt died and the celebration was the day before. Ty's mother flew her in so she could go to the celebration. She was in Ty's car.  I was on my way to the World's Biggest Costco so she went with me!  I love catting around with Brooke.  We had such a great time. 

We got home and had some phone time....They are great conversationalists. 

Later in the day Andrew and Abi showed up for Thanksgiving.  All of my favorite people were home for the Holiday.  I was so happy. 

Then we had some cuddle time after the costco visit!  We had to take a quick nap.

Nothing like Thanksgiving with out some football practice in the kitchen.  Abi ended up on the floor. . .:)

What a great surprise. I have missed Brooke and was so happy to see her!  Such a fun time.  We also ended up at Cafe Rio that night for dinner with all my favorite peeps.  Oh, and Ty came with us , He's my favorite too.
