Thanksgiving with the Loomi!

This year we had Thanksgiving with Robbie's family. It was a lot of fun. His brothers and sister all came to town with their families. McKinley had a great time seeing her cousins again...it's been a long time.

The grandkids ran all over in Nana and Papa's basement and had a blast with sidewalk chalk. Nana also bought them gingerbread cookie kits to decorate. McKinley, having the sweet tooth she does, mostly ate the decorations instead of putting them on the cookie.

After discussing it, Robbie and I decided we would stay at his parent's house over the Thanksgiving weekend. The drive is only about an hour, but that two hours each day and that just isn't fun. John and Marla were gracious enough to let us invade their house and I have to say it was more than worth it. We stayed up late playing games and talking with all the siblings there, it was a lot of fun! The night before Mike, Monica and Rennick left town we met in Salt Lake and saw the lights. It wasn't too cold or too crowded, it was great and the lights looked beautiful as usual.
