Thanksgiving in Kansas!

 This year we got to go to Kansas for Thanksgiving and boy, did we have a blast! :o)

We had tons of fun, played a lot, laughed a lot, ate a lot... all the things you do at Thanksgiving! I wasn't the best about taking pictures, but here are some from our fun trip!

These 2 rocking chairs provided lots of entertainment!


How cute is this kid?! (even with a bruise on his head) :o)

Jeff and I got to go on a date night while we were there... YAY!

I know this isn't the best picture ever, but we sure had fun hanging out with Kir and Carson and Majkin! :o)


EmJ and Gram

Jeff, Aunt Di, and sleepy Luke

Playing with Grandma!


EmJ and Colton on Thanksgiving wearing the awesome turkey hats Loralee made them!

Luke in his turkey hat

Aww... my little turkeys!


Highlight of the trip for EmJ... :o)

She was laughing so hard... it was awesome!

She even got a chance to drive (which was hilarious!)


Colton, Cami, EmJ, and Luke
(not too bad for 4 kids ages 4 and under!)

Grandpa and Grandma with their awesome grandkids!


She makes her daddy (and Grandpa!) proud!

:o)

At the airport... which was an adventure in itself cause we were delayed almost 2 hours. But, we made it (thanks to Grandma for staying and helping entertain!).

We had such a fabulous time in Kansas and were so glad we could go. I'm bummed that I didn't get good pictures of the kiddos with Aunt Stacey - they had so much fun with her. EmJ even got to spend the night with her... which she, of course, loved! We also hung out with Travis a lot, but he managed to stay out of pictures too. Pictures or not, we had a great time with our family and friends and are anxious to see them again! How thankful and blessed we are!

"Not the best about taking pictures", huh? Pretty sure there were a BUNCH of pictures in that there post, Miss Maren. Also, some really REALLY good ones that you're going to be happy you took sometime in the future. Pictures of kids with grandparents are some of the best, ever!
Hope you had a very happy Thanksgiving.
