Turkey Day!

Harris Thanksgiving 2010! We missed you Mom, Dad and Anne.

Happy Turkey Day!!



We had Thanksgiving at my sisters house this year. Thanks to my brother Danny who has become a gourmet cook we had a delicious dinner. All the recipes that we made were ones that he got off one of his favorite websites. I was a little nervous about it because I didn't know if we could live up to the high expectations. But everyone did a great job!! While they were getting final touches ready I took pictures. Look at Lola she is almost as tall as me and is only 7! Lila and Henry were are just too cute!!


Little kids table. They loved all sitting together and loved all the yummy food. The hit of the dinner was Danny's homemade rolls (you couldn't just eat just one.)




Denise joined us this year and it was so fun to have her come. The kids loved her!! After dinner Wayne, me, Brett & Denise joined the kids for a round of games. We first played Mad gab and it was a huge hit. It got pretty noisy with all the screaming and laughing.



We then played spoons and after a few rounds we decided to mix it up a little. It was time to get down to business and be mean and dirty..we played killer spoons!! Its where you put the spoons far away in random places, so you have to run to get your spoon. When it comes to getting a spoon you don't care who you hurt, and you will do anything to get it. The funniest one they did that I got on camera was when they had to get their spoons at the top of the stairs. Brett & Ashlyn were pulling on each others shirts, legs or whatever to get up there faster. It was the funniest thing to watch and they all could not stop laughing. Brett didn't end up with a spoon, but he put up a good fight.



Brett & Austin always find something to entertain themselves. Brett was trying to get Austin to touch the ceiling, and they didn't stop trying til they got it down.



The kids are always wrestling Brett and its so funny to watch. Brett is the best uncle and is always up for whatever game they want to play even if its gang up on Brett day!!



Avery was watching Toy Story 1 in Jenny's room. When I came in to check on her she had gotten in the covers and was just relaxing...so cute!

After we had some yummy pie we headed downstairs. The kids watched Toy story 3 while us adults watched the comedian Brian Regan on the other TV. If you have never seen him you need to its so hilarious! I was sitting by Andrew and we laughed the whole time that my cheeks hurt!!


Jenny has a huge beanbag at her house and this is one of Avery's favorite places to play. Brett was tossing Avery into the beanbag and she was giggling and having so much fun. Lila and Henry wanted to join in on the fun. They did this for a good hour and still didn't want to stop. We had such a fun day and it was so nice to just spend time with the family.
