T-giving Break



It seriously seems like we celebrated Thanksgiving over the entire week.  Wednesday, we got together with John's side of the family during the day and Lilly and Raegan (Lilly's cousin) talked their g-ma into a spur of the moment slumber party.  I will honestly say I enjoyed spending time with just Lucy!
Thursday morning I cleaned and did laundry while the kids watched the parade, and  then headed for Great Bend after lunch.  We prefer to travel during nap time, so it's easier on the adults kids. 

Everyone likes to sleep with a boot on their hand right?
 
The house was full, with two hosts, one great aunt/aunt, three sisters and husbands, four kids under the age of 4.5, and one spoiled dog.  I couldn't imagine it any other way!
Friday evening we went to the Christmas parade in Great Bend.  Lilly reported the big horses were her favorite. 
 
It doesn't matter how hard we try, it is nearly impossible to get all four kids looking at the camera at the same time.  Hanna told the kids to "put your hands at your sides," and apparently Lucy heard something different.  I love that kid.  She might be cuter than her sister was at that age !

I am super tired today, but it always worth it to get back to Great Bend and enjoy some quality family time!
