Thanksgiving

We've finally started establishing some traditions with our families so now every year we celebrate Thanksgiving at my brothers. This year we had 28 people!! Sharon, Colleen's mom, is an amazing cook and prepares most of the food. I always bring sweet potatoes and green bean casserole and Colleen makes her yummy spinach dip. This was Rudy's first Thanksgiving and as you can see he enjoyed his meal thanks to Grandpa Mike. Most of the day we just hung out, ate, and then ate some more. After dinner Jesse started the fire pit so we spent most of the night out there playing Catch Phrase. We were SO LOUD!! Jesse said he walked down the street and could easily hear us. I guess it's good that most of their neighbors are old because nobody complained :) The first couple of pictures were taken for my school. One of my professors favorite holidays is Thanksgiving so for extra credit we had to take a picture with our family, crazy hats, the family, pet, a mashed potato sculpture and me eating cranberry sauce. Don't you like the mashed potato turkey? We did such a good job with it that I got 12 out of 10 possible points! Of course I love the picture...who knows maybe we've started another tradition.
