Turkey Dinner...Turkey Dinner...Gather 'Round...

Daniel was so excited.....he just couldn't wait for a plate!!!!
We had Thanksgiving dinner up at the church so we could all fit around a table (or 3)!
This is trying to get a cute family picture with 3 kids.....you can imagine our next one with 4! :)
We had to get one last picture of our prego bellies, because Shanan is due on the 3rd! Only 2 more days!!! Hopefully she will have it by then, but if all else fails they will start her on the 10th!
This kodak moment was too cute to resist.....still "in love" after 50 years!!! We love Grandma Donna & Grandpa Jay!
The kids had fun on the wiggle cars and the big boys played basketball!
Austin was a little monkey and was content to climb on anything he could find!
What a little cutie!!! He has just about everybody wrapped around his little finger!
Then we had a gingerbread house making contest! Here are a few of the finished products! Mom & Dad's never got a picture because shortly before it was finished it became the casualty of an incoming basketball! Sad :(
Here is Mikelle with the house she and I made together....
Tyler showing off his and Daniel's creation....
Braden & Jackie with their gingerbread house......before it collapsed!
Jaymie & Graydon made a log cabin and probably had the sturdiest, awesomest, prize-winning house!!! The log-like cookies were Graydon's idea and Jaymie's addition was the pink frosting!
Pretty cool, huh? I think they've done this before........
We had a great Thanksgiving! Thank-you to all who helped with the food, the fun, and the great memories!

What a lot of fun!!! I love the house-making contest, and I think I'm going to get some "logs" to make ours with this year, what a cute idea!
