Happy Thanksgiving

The Sherman's made the trek across the state this year for Thanksgiving. It was so great to see them!!! We went to my Mom and Dad's for Thanksgiving day. My Mom made a great meal! Thanks again Mom! She also planned ahead and got play-dough and color books/crayon's for the kids to play with after dinner. The kids had a blast and did really well!

Then Friday afternoon April Sherman, April Seiberlich and I took Logan and Layla to see Tangled. My Mom watched Cody; I knew he'd never be able to sit through the whole movie...I was worried about Logan sitting through the whole movie, let alone Cody. But the thing I didn't expect was as we were pulling out of my Mom's driveway Logan starts crying. He was very upset and when I asked him why he said, "Mom you forgot Cody. We need to go get Cody." When I stopped to think about it I realized that Logan and Cody don't do many things apart from each other. The poor kid thought we had left Cody behind. It was really sweet! The movie was really good and Logan did ok. It was in 3D and I didn't realize that. The glasses were too big for Logan and Layla so they didn't wear them, which wasn't a big deal. Logan did say about 20 min into the movie that he wanted to go home and get Cody. :-) He did ok after that...only had to go to the bathroom 3 times during the movie. I really really loved the movie though. Then afterward we went out for pizza. It was a really fun afternoon!

Saturday April and I got a chance to do some shopping in the morning and then Saturday night the 4 adults actually got to go out on the town...if you can say that about going to Sue's. :-) We just went to the bar for a few drinks and to listen to the band that was playing. It was a ton of fun and so good to get out just the 4 of us for a while.

The other interesting thing that happened that weekend didn't occur until Jake and April were leaving. Of course it's hunting season and Brian and Jake are cavemen at heart so they have a primal need to hunt things. Jake got a doe on Friday afternoon (Yeah Jake!!), and of course needed to take it back across the state with him to get it processed. Turns out him and Brian had a brain storm and decided to freeze the deer in the fetal position basically. They thought it would be funny to have the deer look as though it was just merely sleeping on top of the Envoy as they trekked it across the state. It was funny and sort of weird to see this deer laying on top of their car. See for yourself....

I guess they had a few people taking pictures of it as they made their way home. They also had one guy from Illinois cut them off and give them the figure...maybe he was with PETA...Oh our caveman husbands...we love you guys. :-)

Lastly a few shots of our cute littles...

I missed the Cody drunk driving moment! Darn! Hilarious! I'll have to post a very funny video I have of Logie and Layla on a sugar high soon. Too funny. And did I hear myself tell the kids to "mind their biz" at one point? Must have been having one of my mood swings. Sorry about that. ;) Thanks again to you and your parents for having us!! It was a great time!!
