Thanksgiving

Bear with me here cause this is gonna be a long post! Since our family all had different scheduled this year, we had to actually postpone Thanksgiving until Saturday. My sister and her family and my grandparents came over and spent the day.
First, there were shenanigans:



Then, of course, there was football:

I got it!!!

Come on, son, you can do it!

As my grandpa said, "Look at the wing on that chicken!"

This is his Huisman pose! :0)

Grandma calling out plays.
Finally, the bird was finished and it was time for FOOD! Get to carving!
Grandpa got caught cheatin the pot and stealing some stuffing!
Let's give thanks....Yes, that's my chair on the end. The photographer never gets IN the picture.
Finally, sweet bonding with the great-grandparents before everyone passes out from tryptophan overload!




Tonia figured out that everyone passed out and left HER to do the dishes! Payback for YEARS of her doing the same thing to us!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Looks like lots of fun! I got an "empty chair" picture too...I do every year. It appears I haven't made it to any holidays for 25 years :-) Terry
