THANKSGIVING

So we had Thanksgiving at the Curtis' house (Kellen's sister) in Sleepy Hollow Illinois. Shade actually did really well in his car seat on the 10 hour drive out there and back. The food was awesome and the kids were so cute! I need to start writing down the funny things they say so I can remember them.

FOOTBALL
The boys went to go play football early Thanksgiving morning. Bad idea. Kellen got knocked in the head pretty hard and was pretty out of it the rest of the weekend ("Church Ball"). Although, he also ate a lime-flavored cricket and ended up pretty sick from that too(we can't think of what else could have made him so sick). So other than the family, he had a pretty miserable Thanksgiving.

FAMILY
At one point we were talking about our families. Kellen only knew one grandma, and not very well. He never really got to know any aunts, uncles, or cousins. I got to know 5 grandmas and 5 grandpas (Davis, Roundy, Floss, Wilcock, Milne), all 12 of my aunts and uncles, all of the cousins my age, and even many of my second cousins. So Shade currently has 15 uncles, 10 aunts, 6 grandmas, 5 grandpas, and almost 19 first cousins. Sweet.

Here are some fun pictures from that trip:
