We headed to Ephrata for the Thanksgiving weekend.
The weather was chilly and the cousins loved the hot tub!
Aunt Rachel braided the girls' hair and there was a lot of coloring.
The boys played happily in the basement. Such a nice phase of life to let them play and not have to sit in the basement, too!
We headed up to Allstots while Bryan played in the Turkey Bowl Thursday morning.
Fun to see the Pobsts and Aunt Phyllis!
Learning to play Guess Who was an exercise in patience, while the Zags lost in the background.
We also got to visit Grama Sally and Sue and Steve. The kids soaked up all the family!
Back at Johnsons, Rachel directed turkey cookie frosting.
Shannon's bruised nose was a nice addition to the frosting on her face!
Brad and Carol joined us and we gave thanks and feasted.
There was lots of football out front. Mitch and Jack were happy to play against anyone willing to brave the 20 degree temperatures.
Meanwhile, the girls had a concert in the warmth of the house.
Friday was the Apple Cup and we sported our colors! Shan's nose seemed to be purple and gold accordingly.
The kiddos enjoyed some hidden picture books together.
And Grandpa was a willing tackling dummy. He did issue lots of penalties, though, and Mitch was the recipient of many a personal foul.
Saturday morning we had some quiet grandparent time. The kids were helpful in beginning the Christmas decorating.
And they enjoyed more hidden pictures with grandma.
Bryan helped Dave string outside lights before we headed home. Always nice to spend time with our family! Happy thanksgiving!
