Thanksgiving!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We hosted Jeremy's family for a couple of days and had a great time. They came in to town on Wednesday night and we had pizza for dinner. We also celebrated our niece Maggie's birthday. She will be 5 in a couple of weeks and since she lives in Chicago we probably won't see her on her birthday. We had fun having our dessert Wednesday night on Disney Princess plates.

Here is Maggie opening her present from Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Kim!


And her little brother Hank wondering why he isn't getting any presents:)

This is Jeremy working on his turkey masterpiece on Thanksgiving Day! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving meal. It was a nice relaxing day. Thanks Jan and Jeremy for doing all the work! We had turkey, ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, green bean casserole, rolls, cranberry sauce. Then for dessert, Darci & Kyle picked up a yummy Pumpkin Cheesecake from a great bakery in Chicago. We ate around noon so we were able to eat leftovers later, yum, leftover turkey and ham sandwiches with mayo....my fave! We relaxed and played games, watched a lot of football and just hung out. We had cheap entertainment with the kiddos being around.
Darci & Kyle and the kids left on Friday and John and Jan stayed until Saturday. Jan and I did a little Black Friday shopping in the afternoon on Friday. We found some great bargains. Jan was a huge help as she helped me put up 2 of our Christmas trees. Pics of our trees are to come in a future post. We had a great weekend, we even took everyone to Jeremy's school to run around in the gym and burn some energy and some turkey:) It was fun!
Hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving!
