thanksgiving 2009 (clever, i know)

another successful thanksgiving. and by "successful" i mean, i ate my weight in food. oh, how i love those leftovers . . .
we had a great time staying with jamie and travis. they have been gracious enough to let us crash two thanksgivings and one christmas so far. they just can't get rid of us. and we were also able to visit with jon and amy's family, as well as have a night with just the grown ups. . . complete with fondue and "adult games" (as josh called them. i told him to stop calling them that.)

the kids loved the outdoor games the best. "inny i over" (?), (which i guess is a game that the youth of idaho play), involved throwing a tennis ball over the house and a lot of running. the kids loved that the most. well, the kids and jamie, josh, and travis. also, red rover was introduced and the kids played that for hours. well, the kids and jamie, josh, and travis. i was the official stick in the mud. it's true. anyway, my favorite part of red rover was when there were no kids left between josh and travis and they refused to hold hands. refused. i burned half of my thanksgiving calories laughing about that.

anyway, enough talk. pictures, and a video. . . which i love for many reasons. see if you can identify all the reasons i love it so much. it's easy.

Parker is a smartie pants. Macy and ollie are so cute I could eat them. Josh is quite the ballerina. and I especially love the kiddo sitting at the counter eating like there isn't a dance party going on around her!

Happy thanksgiving Bobbin. I love you!

And how did Travis super glue his finger?

I didn't know Ollie had moves like that. He's been watching his sisters.

Josh, well there is a hidden talent in all of us.....but his is out now.

Josh has a spot light on him dancing. Nice. You must teach me how you play throw the ball over the house and run.
