Thanksgiving morning is such a busy time....trying to get the turkey going, throwing all the appitizers together, picking up the house, and of course....looking at the the ads for black friday! So to keep the kids busy for a while we have always had the kids do their gingerbread houses. This year my brother came early so Brandon could decorate his first gingerbread house! Mind you he is 16!!!!LOL Zach, Lexie and Brandon did a great job on their houses....(sorry the pics are sideways)
After the houses were decorated we had hoola-hoop contests, did cartwheels outside, played the wii, and just enjoyed hanging out with family.
It always amazes me that it takes all day and so much labor into preparing this holiday meal and then its over in 10 minutes and there is soooo much leftovers! Dinner was so yummy! After dinner we all sat down for a family poker tournament....which Grandma Grace won! We had a great Thanksgiving this year.
