As we were getting packed up to head out for Thanksgiving the boys got the idea to use the suitcases as little seats to watch t.v. (yes my boys drink out of sippie cups...don't judge me:) So that kept them occupied so I could get everything ready.
I started doing laundry and on my second load the washer started making strange noises, I knew it wasn't going to end well. We've had our washer and dryer for 7 years and they were pretty inexpensive when we got them. So I guess it's time for a new one. Chloe LOVES babies and she wanted to hold Mataya every chance she got. Miss Brown eyes holding Miss Blue eyes.The boys wasted no time and went from one adventure to the next. And my little Spencer. He likes to use his boots as gloves. That kid is unique and comes up with some funny stuff. We ate our Thanksgiving feast at the elementary school. There's kind of a lot us. Only a school's cafeteria can contain us...that's just how we roll. The high point was when Billy chose to serve his mashed potatoes out of a small cooler. Keep it classy Hurricane! As the blessing was said for the food. We all got in line to fight for the deep fried turkey, mom's rolls, and Grammy's fruit salad a.k.a. chocolate chips, cool whip, snicker salad. And my mom looked over and noticed Spencer was about to fall asleep in his chair. She quickly got him a beanbag and he took a nice long nap. He woke up about the time the vacuum cleaner was coming by after it was all over. So he completely missed out, but he didn't care he had some chips and a drink of diet coke so he was good:) Cooper, Carter, and Parker found the Halloween/dress-up bin in the basement and they really went for it. This is Parker with a black wig, clown wig, and a cheerleader costume. That's a little awkward, but they were sure entertaining. I guess it's okay to wear a hot pink poodle skirt if it's paired with a crazy zombie wig. (too bad I didn't get a pic of that:)
And finally, no trip to Grandma and Grandpa's house would be complete without several half naked boys eating mac 'n cheese at the table.

What a fun and yummy time we had. It's always nice to get away. And nothing brings out that holiday cheer in Cory more than wasting a few rabbits with the AR. (that stands for assault rife for all you non-gun-lovers)
