Thanksgiving in KS

I know, I know. I've been awful at keeping up the blog lately. I think if you know what has been going on here lately, you'll probably excuse my tardiness in posting the following pics from our trip to Wichita for Thanksgiving.

My mother's side of the family always has Thanksgiving at my grandma's church. Since way back in the day. And everyone helps (Or if you don't, they'll talk about you in the kitchen. You might as well go and defend yourself!)


I usually make the cinnamon apples. This year was no exception...


My grandma, AKA Gigi... I handed the camera to someone and said, "Take our picture! Say cheese! " And Gigi said, "SEX!"

This is better...


The kids ran around with all their long-lost 2nd adn 3rd cousins...
Syd and Talon chat

Kyle gives a chutes and ladders lesson

Highlight of the day... hanging on for dear life on the chair rack (Shiree, Mary, Becky, Syd, Keegan, Chelsea, Brenna, Talon, Robby and Hunter)
Rides from Grandpa

Phew! Thanksgiving will tucker a kid out!


We also exchanged Christmas presents with my side of the family, since we are headed to Minnesota for Christmas...
Gigi and Cory

Brenna opens Auntie Tara's gift for her..

And Syd opens Grandpa's

He liked it!

We liked our stuff too!
