Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was almost 2 weeks ago, but here I am, just getting around to posting the very few pictures that I actually took that day. Anyway, we went over to my Aunt Mary & Uncle Linwood's house... Mary is #4 of the 9 Harrisons (for those that care and keep track of who's who in that big crazy family). We only had 27 people this year. Yep, you read that right - only 27. It seemed sort of low key compared to normal, but it was nice that it was low key. It was also nice that our kids (and the other kids that were there) behaved beautifully, despite no nap that day! It's always fun catching up with family that we don't see that often despite living in the same city. And it was nice of my aunt and uncle to offer up their gorgeous house to all of us and the kids. I'm always worried that our kids are going to wreck something in their house, but Brett knew exactly where my aunt keeps the toys and exactly what he was allowed to play with, so that helped tremendously!

Brett loves sitting by the pool - even if it was sort of cold and drizzly

Kate liked doing it just because it was now raining harder and I told her no, repeatedly

Spoofing - no way did that child sleep in the middle of the Thanksgiving comotion!
