Thanksgiving Weekend!

This weekend we headed to Lincoln to celebrate Thanksgiving with family. We had a GREAT time - and ate about 173, 842 calories (I think that's how many Grandpa said......) - way too much food, but a great time with family.

Wednesday night we headed out - here's a shot of Alex helping me with the laundry (Actually, Andy put him in here - he seemed to enjoy it!) :)


Thursday - Turkey Day - Alex was going NON-STOP!! He didn't want to slow down for even a quick snooze! However, after a very filling lunch, Alex and Grandpa Dave took a nap in the recliner while watching football. It was so nice to see everyone.......


Friday - Andy had to work, so it was just the gals and Alex for the day. We did a little bit of shopping - not too much because of the crowds. We did find quite a few good bargains. We did watch the Husker game (and all of the "firing" drama that ensued), and we are anxiously anticipating next season and our new coaching staff!!

Saturday - We did a bit more shopping (including getting me a BEAUTIFUL new wedding ring!!) and went out to lunch with Grandpa and Grandma Frank. That night we watched the Kansas/Missouri game. All but two of us fell asleep. So, Andy and Grandpa filled us in the next morning. :)

Sunday - we went to church with Grandpa and Grandma and then took them out for brunch. Then we headed home for the MOUNDS of laundry and unpacking.

We will leave you with this adorable video of Alex "dancing" - I'm not quite sure what he was thinking, but he was doing this for a SOLID 5 minutes - when he decided to go to bed (which was shortly thereafter), he CRASHED!!! It's just a funny video, hopefully it gives you a chuckle.



We hope everyone else had a wonderful weekend as well - Happy Thanksgiving!
