Thanksgiving

After getting rained out of Dale's original plan of camping for Thanksgiving, we had it at his house instead. The kids were happy to play with their cousins and run around all afternoon while the adults all cooked. 

Dinner was delicious, and dessert was too. Dale and Vanessa had invited another family over as well. They have 5 kids, so all together there were 13 kids total and 6 adults. It was a FULL house.

After dinner, we went over to the Patterson's house for some swimming and more dessert! The kids always have a blast with Caleb and Joshua.
We hung out over there longer than we had planned, but that gave Dale and Vanessa some time to hang out with their friends alone. It's always nice to see Laurel and her family. After we left their house, we went back to Dale and Vanessa's house for a family sleepover. We were all pretty tired, so we didn't stay up playing games or chatting like I thought we might. Oh well. Such a nice and very FILLING Thanksgiving.

Everything sure looks good! Cute cookies. Wow, 13 kids. I bet they had so much fun all together. Swimming in November?! Was the pool heated or was it just that warm then? Laurel's such a sweetheart and good friend.
