Thanksgiving at our house


This is the first time since 2009 that we've had Zach home for the holidays.  


The boys were showing him a computer game.  


Then they did some more football.  


Pretty soon, Grammy and Carl showed up with Annaliese!  The little girls were so excited to see her!  Katie calls her "Neeneelee!"  It's so stinking cute.  


Charming, right?  


One side of the tables.


The other side of the tables.  


After lunch, we played Apples to Apples.


I love to watch my kids goof off and play together.  


Silly boys.  Sam is stronger than he looks, eh?


Lukey doesn't know what to think of all the chaos.


Pretty soon, it was time for dessert!  Jack has a thing for PIE.


My mom brought cobbler.  We had dessert for dinner.  It was wonderful.  I am thankful.
