I hope all of you had as enjoyable of a Thanksgiving as we did. All the married kids and my grandparents were able to come for a couple days. Daniel's birthday was also on Thursday (and he got so many presents he's going to be spoiled!! =D), but I'll post those pics later so as not to bore you all with a lengthy post.
Melinda and Andrew came Wednesday afternoon, and we girls made the pies for Thanksgiving dinner. It was fun to cook together...

| Nathan and Andrew wanted to help... lol... but we threw them out of the kitchen! =D |
Gram and Pap arrived Wednesday evening and Paul, Priscilla, and Victor got in late that night. The next day, little Victor had many hands ready to hold him...but of course, we didn't spoil him! lol =D
 |
| Lunch was delicious!! |
In the evening we played games and, later, volleyball. (Don't have any pics though..was actually dark outside. Yes, it was an interesting game playing in the dark! =))
 |
| playing Bananagrams... soooooo fun! |
 |
| Lindy and Beth playing Life on the Farm.. and being silly =D |
With some struggling, we managed to harness the guys long enough to take the usual family pictures...
