We had a big Anderson Thanksgiving this year with both of my grandmas, Uncle Dean & their three daughters + family, Uncle Ryan & family, Aunt Janae & family, and our family minus Mandy. It was quite a big group, but nice to see everyone.
Aiden was pretty fascinated by his cousin (second cousin? cousin once removed? what is my cousin’s son to Aiden?), Finnley, who is almost exactly one year older.
We had a ton of food. Isaac and I did three bowls of veggies, and we have enough left over to last us a LONG time.
Some of the guys went out front to play football. I like how awkward Isaac looks in the above picture, lol. He really didn’t look so awkward in person.
Everyone enjoyed talking and playing cards, and Patrick entertained many of the kids for a long time by telling funny stories.
Aiden had so much fun on his first Thanksgiving that he didn’t nap (or even get cranky!) until everyone was gone, around 8 PM. He was pretty zonked by that time.
All in all, it was a great Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Sophie broke into Haylie’s dog food container later that night and ate about four days’ worth of food, so she isn’t doing so well today. Apparently she felt left out of all the eating, having not gotten a single scrap. (sigh)
