Happy Thanksgiving (a bit late)

We have so much to be thankful for this year and had an excellent time celebrating Thanksgiving with family. This year was a little different from past years since my sisters all had different plans. So we didn't get a chance to see any of them (Katie stayed home since she understandably didn't want to be traveling with the new baby this year. Colleen went to Tennessee, this is where her boyfriend lives to meet his family. Megan spent the holiday with her in-laws, she does that every other year). Nick went hunting with his brothers and Dad up north like they do every year. So that leaves my parents, my boys and myself... Until my mother came up with the idea to go spend the holiday with my Dad's family. So on Thanksgiving we headed down to see everyone and had a wonderful time.

First stop- Bob and Nita's house (grandma and grandpa great)! This is Cullen showing Grandma his wiener-dog shoes.Then it was off to see the Curtis side of the family. Since my mother wasn't feeling 100% my Dad and her ended up heading back home Thanksgiving day night. I was talked into staying at my cousin Callie's house (there wasn't a whole lot of arm twisting involved). The boys had fun hanging out with their cousins and I had a great time with my cousins as well. We even went "shopping" with the kids at Mayfair Mall for a bit on Friday. Geremu got his first look at Santa and he is starting to understand that Santa isn't just any man in a uniform. He thinks Santa is about the coolest guy ever, Geremu was waving and yelling "Hi Santa". But he is a little confused by the reindeer thing, he keeps correcting me telling me they are moose.

We stopped and visited with Grandma Great for a while before heading out of town. She has been in the hospital and not feeling so well but she look pretty good to me!
My Aunt Colleen entertained the kids (which is not an easy task to do in a house that isn't childproofed) while I visited with Grandma for awhile.

I had to through in a picture of Geremu dressed in his favorite outfit- Bob the Builder.
