Thanksgiving 2017

For Thanksgiving this year we did our usual party hopping starting at Uncle Mark and Aunt Penny's for lunch and games and then ending at Nonna and Pepe's for dinner and more games. The boys had really great behavior and were friendly and polite to everyone. The were bummed that Auntie M and Hunky Kevin were sick so that meant no Ben to play with but they still had fun doing puzzles, snacking, and talking to everyone. We even managed to get a few family shots outside thanks to Grandpa, Grandma, and Aunt Penny!

 

We arrived at Jon's parent's house in time to let the boys run around a bit outside with Lyla, Zach, and Maisie and then we attempted to sit down and have dinner. For some reason the kids table turned into a game of tug of war and left Maisie and Lyla wanting nothing to do with the boys. After dinner we had drinks (the Stoothoffs "Iced" Jon and Drew), pie, and played our annual game of boys vs. girls trivial pursuit. Reed was the official roller for the boys and did a great job. The ladies were victorious despite repeatedly being told by the guys how dumb our logic, answers, strategy, etc. were. We didn't get home until after 11:00pm and the boys were pooped the next day, but it was totally worth it because we all had a great time.
