I don't know about you...but one Thanksgiving dinner is just not enough:)!! We spent the Saturday after Thanksgiving at my parent's house. It was so nice because my mom is also a good cook and had many yummies for us to eat during the noon hour and beyond. There was no reason for anyone to say they were hungry! Grandma and Grandpa H were there and so was my Grandma R. I enjoyed being around them because it made me feel young again. Throughout the day (inbetween stuffing our faces) we played Paul's Wii. Mallory loves that thing! She bowled quite a few times, played a few of the carnival games, and then Mario Kart. It was fun hearing her giggle as she would fall into the lava or run off the course. During the first four races she always was in 12th (last) place and thought she had won. Finally after the fifth race or so she said, "You mean, I am in last place?" or something equal to that. Melissa and I laughed realizing how devastated she was. It did not stop her from playing. Here is Mallory with Miles "driving".Besides the Wii we all sat around the table and played Uno Attack (a great game if you do not already own it). Grandma R got into the game too. I love those moments when family comes together for something as simple as a game. I am blessed for them and I guess that makes me thankful.

Sounds like my friend Mallory needs to come play Wii with me over Christmas break.
