Thanksgiving in a nut shell

We spent Thanksgiving in Arizona. We were able to have lunch with the Skinner side and then dinner with the Biggs side. It worked out quite well. Although, Landon spent Thanksgiving day in bed, sick. No Fun!!!
The food at both get together did not disappoint. It was fabulous. We all left fat and happy. I am still wondering why were asked to only bring drinks to the lunch though. Somebody knows I can't cook. I did help peel potatoes and nobody complained about finding a peel in the mashed potatoes.
Aunt Krista taught us to play the "What If" game after we ate. If you want to know how to play it you'll have to ask her. My kids loved it and they even conned the Biggs family into playing it at dinner. Everybody got a kick out of it.
There was a lot of Wii action going on too.

This picture cracks me up:

I didn't know that Wii had a ballet game too.

Here is a picture of some of the Skinner Grand kids (Sara and Cameron's kids weren't there):
The Saturday after Thanksgiving John organized a breakfast at IHOP, but we couldn't get him to pay for the breakfast.

I don't know why you would only have to bring drinks because you are a great cook. Remember the meal exchange we did for a while there. It was other peoples food that wasn't always quite so tasty. :) No names. Glad you guys had fun in AZ. Tell all the kids hi from mine. Liz
