Thanksgiving










Well, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year. We went to Iowa to see Courtney's family. We got to see the whole fam and of course Isobel loved being spoiled by everyone! Courtney made his famous trash can turkey and it turned out perfectly. We had an amazing dinner (thanks Linda!) and enjoyed catching up with everyone. Isobel got to see all the farm animals, she especially loved the cows. And the cow poo especially loved her shoes! April and Lola stopped by and I couldn't believe how much she'd grown. She and Isobel had fun playing together. The boys did their usual clay pigeon shoot on the hill at the farm. They all did a great job, but Chris took the trophy! Ugh, not again! Better luck next year guys! Somehow Greg ended up with all the kids piled on his head the whole time, but he held his own. None of us ventured out for black Friday deals...I think we were in a food coma for a couple of days. Isobel kept everyone pretty busy reading books, playing, watching her shows, and watching videos on the computer. But she had so much fun, I think she realized the fun was over when we got home! So our holiday was fun and relaxing and we loved see the whole family. We love you all so much! Now it's time to buckle down for Christmas shopping.
