Thanksgiving morning we had everyone over for German Pancakes and a little turkey bowl. Andy woke up at 6AM to secure a field. Best line of the day was by Charles, "This isn't the Super Bowl, this is the Turkey Bowl. Let's get on with it!"
We had a wonderful dinner prepared by all family members and of course no Thanksgiving is complete without Jane's Orange Rolls. YUM!
Here is Lucas in his Thanksgiving Sweater. Please ignore the black sock to cover the cast.
Family Picture
This was Lucas' last "1st" Holiday so we had to go all out with a bib!
On Friday we of course did our Black Friday Shopping.... and put up Christmas decorations!
Here are Andy and Lucas finishing off the Christmas Tree with Santa:
Family Photo in front of the tree:
Here is the story behind this picture. We set the tri-pod up to take a family photo... well Lucas refused to look at the camera or smile for that matter... or when we would get him to smile it would stop by the time the timer went off. So I started jumping right before the picture took. Well that resulted in me "landing" and looking really small, and Andy looking really tall. So, here we are, the munchkin wife and the super tall hubby.
Today John and Jane gave their homecoming talks at church. Afterwards we took a family photo:
It was freezing outside. And of course, Lucas is looking elsewhere.
Me and Kelly... wish they lived closer... sigh
It was a great weekend filled with yummy food, good conversation, and lots of family. Thanks Burdetts and Trythalls for coming in to town so we could play.

1) Is Lucas's sweater from GAP? I almost bought it. Looks much better on Lucas with that olive skin...not so much on my powder child. Lol.
2) Hilarious story behind the family photo. Now that you explain it, I can totally tell you are "landing" and compacting...you guys kill me.
3) Thanksgiving family photo of you 3 is darling. Who did it? Let's share a photographer soon.
