Happy Thanksgiving

This year we had a wonderful Thanksgiving. First thing in the morning Darrel, Damion and Heather joined in the traditional Rushton family Thanksgiving football game. They had a great time! It was to cold to sit outside so I stayed home with the 2 little ones. Then afterward we all went to my parents house for dinner. It was delicious! We were joined by my sister Kari and her kids Wilson, Austin, and Kennedy, and by my sister Holly and her kids Brady, and Braxton. We brought over our Wii and actually got my parents to play it! It was hilarious! Every time my mom got a spare or a strike she would do a little shake-your-booty dance! After dinner we went to Darrel's mom's house for dessert. Jessie made an amazing pumpkin cheesecake. Normally I don't like cheesecake but ooooohhhh this is sooooo good! We played a game of Scene-It on the XBox 360. Of course Julie and Jessie kicked all our butts! I am sure Carrie would have won but her and Mike skipped out early so they could go see 4 Christmases. She said it was super funny so hopefully Darrel and I will get a chance to go see it. Here are a few pictures. I didn't get as many as I would have liked because things were kind of crazy with everyone running around. Plus Shayla was fussy and didn't want me to put her down.


I think Shayla looks like a doll in this picture

That sounded like a wonderful day and I can totally picture your mom doing her booty shaking dance, how hillarious.
