Thanksgiving Weekend

All the kids and Uncle Darren watching Jerry's "magic show."
Jerry giving Reuben some tips for the magic trick.

Claire and Aunt Kim hanging out at Ada Christian

Erin all bundled up!

Everyone loves an uncle who plays! Darren is just like a big kid!

Mason got Comic Catch for his birthday which is a fun game. You wear a colored wrist band and have to pass the ball to the color that the ball says. It starts going faster and faster and when it buzzes you are out. That didn't go over so well for.....

Mason who cried each time he was eliminated from the game. They probably played 27 times. Poor little guy!

Our Christmas tree went up Sunday night. Erin helped place the star on top.

Jerry's sister Kim and her husband Darren came up Thursday night to stay for the weekend. They have three kids, Reuben, Mason, and Julianna, so our house was full of fun! Friday morning Kim and I headed out to some stores with all the other crazy people and were back home by 10 am. The guys took the big kids to a movie Friday afternoon. Saturday we headed to downtown Ada for the Santa Clause parade which isn't until next Saturday. Oops! If I had read the article online a little closer I would have realized it was from last year. The kids were totally fine with it, and considering everyone was bundled up we went over to Ada Christian and played on the playground for a good hour and a half. The sun was warm and there was no breeze so it was beautiful! Saturday night the guys were generous enough to let Kim and I go out shopping again. We closed down Kohl's and got home a little after midnight. No crowds at that time! Sunday we went to church, had a yummy meal, and just as they were getting ready to leave the snow started. We were hoping to get in some sledding this weekend, but it just didn't happen. Looking forward to seeing everyone again in a few weeks!
