For Thanksgiving my parents, my sister Ashley and her husband Isaac came to visit us. The kids were so excited, it's all they could talk about for weeks. On Thursday we had Thanksgiving dinner watched football and then went to the movie Bolt. The next few days we went shopping, played games, we went out to eat at good places (Thanks Dad!!!), we went to a car museum and to the biggest Christmas shop in the world. Jay missed out on a few things because he was on call the entire time they were here.
Jay, my dad and Isaac caught eating before the dinner began.
Isaac, Aspen, Autumn and Grandpa watching football after a big Thanksgiving feast. Aspen has really gotten into football since moving here.
We went to Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch for my sis's birthday and they gave her a chocolate cake in which I think Autumn ate almost the whole thing. She is addicted to chocolate!
Brighton & Jay in front of Christmas lights.
This picture was taken at Bass Pro Shop. Brighton wouldn't sit on Santa's lap so Jay had to hold him next to Santa. At least he would get near Santa, Autumn wouldn't go near him and Aspen is just too cool for Santa anymore.
My mom & I after a very long day of shopping. We left at 11:30pm on Thanksgiving day to go to the outlets that opened at midnight. The next day was my sisters birthday and all she wanted to do was shop. This picture was taken around 8pm while waiting for my sister to get done shopping. My mom and I were pooped!

We had a lot of fun and after all was said and done it went by way too fast! We love having visitors come and see us! Hint - hint! Thanks for everything Mom & Dad - we already miss you!

Autumn wanted to go home with Grandma. She climbed in the car on Grandma's lap when they were getting ready to leave.

Aww what a great visit! Great pics too! We'll be there as soon as we can. 80) I loved that Jay had to have his own "rotten eggs". My family has 'Rotten eggs" for every get together. They are a staple in our house too.
Sounds like a wonderful holiday. Wish we could have been there, too. I loved all the pics, especially the one with Brighton driving the car. His hair is wild! Love you all, Mom
