Thanksgiving 2009

Gosh, a whole month since I've posted anything, go figure!! I was afraid this would happen. I feel like I can't post something unless I have pictures to go along with it and since my camera has pooped out, I'm having to use Dennis' from work and don't get as many shots as I'd like. Hint for Dennis: good Christmas gift!! So, our Thanksgiving weekend was pretty uneventful. We had a nice lunch here at the house with my sisters, brother-in-law, mother-in-law and all the kiddos. Raegan, Aspen & I made pumpkin pies the night before. It was my first time & I think they turned out GREAT!! Darn it, I forgot to get a picture of the pies. Silly me!!

Our oldest 2 stayed with friends most of the rest of the weekend and Alison was with family in Parsons. My sisters were going to Branson for the weekend after our Thanksgiving lunch, so Dennis & I figured we'd have a quiet weekend at home with my mother-in-law, Raegan and Sutton. Well, Raegan was invited to Branson at the last minute, so we were pretty much childless. Sutton sleeps from 7:30pm to 7:30am, so we had the WHOLE evening to do whatever we wanted. Thanksgiving night my friend Crystal and her husband Matt came to Winfield to stay for a couple nights with us and our friends Paul & Jennie came over to play games. We had a blast and stayed up ENTIRELY too late. Friday was spent recovering and then we did it again on Saturday night. All in all, it was a great, relaxing weekend.
