Thanksgiving Feast and Fun!!

This year for thanksgiving Aunt Katy came for a visit.  It was so much fun to have her at our house!  She did great crafts with the kids, rented some fun movies to watch, did a lot of cleaning and dishes, gave me someone to talk to non-stop, and spoiled us all rotten.  Sisters are the best!!

Dad did all the cooking for the weekend, which was a huge break for me.  We love having our dad around!!  He played games with the kids, took them to the movies and gave me a chance to go shopping with my sister.

It was a great weekend!!

Look at J Man.  He is making sure that Aunt Katy doesn't miss blowing out her birthday candles!!

I think the help got a little carried away with sampling the food!

A round of Apples to Apples.

Aunt Katy showing everyone how to make candy turkeys.  The candied fruit on the table was a big hit.  Dad insisted we buy it because it was a tradition that Grandpa B always had that candy at his house on Thanksgiving.  We ate all three boxes in a day.

Great-Grandma Vance's traditional Heavenly Hash.  It turned out perfect!!

Notice the girls' hair in this picture.  Aunt Katy styled it for them.  The turkeys turned out cute.

J Man's turkey lost its nose.


It was nice having such a helpful sister around, doing my dishes and cleaning my house.  You can come back any time Katy!!

Getting ready for the feast!

Thanksgiving Feast!!

Big B with the bib and hat my friend Marci sent him.  

You see why we call her Cutie Katie!  Come again any time sister, we can go to Target!!
