After we got back from Chicago we set up our Christmas decorations outside (it was almost 60 degrees) and inside! It's a great time of year!Before we headed back to MI Jack and Taylor got to do some smashing pumpkins. I love throwing food.
We went to Naperville's Christmas parade on Friday and brought along pizza to share (for the kiddos, Steve made us some amazing Thai food for the grown ups after the parade).
Here is our dessert table. whoa. WHOA!!!! So good! 8 pies and 1 cake! Beautiful cake Justin! You're a lucky woman Zhenya!
Jack and Peter also got some great prizes in the bingo game.
Craig's mullet looks so natural. Maybe he'll wear it to work! Hailey should be glad that Steve won this wig so that he doesn't really have to grow out his mane!
Steve won a great wig in the bingo game after the meal. It is such a great look for him.
Here is Justin and his wife Zhenya and Robert and Laura's baby Tyler.
Katie wrote a great play about the First Thanksgiving which was rehearsed and put on for all of us. Good work guys!
Robert knows how the THROW DOWN!!! (we all put away ALOT of really great food!).
Check it out! What a spread! Big thanks to our hosts, Robert and Laura! We had sooooo much fun! It was heavenly to spend time all together, let the kids play and also split up the Thanksgiving menu!
Ahhh....here's a great Thanksgiving, I get to play with Baby Tyler and Robert and Justin fuss with the 20lb bird and making gravy!
Here is the little kids table! They mostly wandered around and scavenged food from the adults plates.
We took a hike on a "mountain" that was once a landfill. It was chilly but so fun to get out and play before stuffing ourselves beyond belief.
We went to Chicago to spend Thanksgiving with Hailey, Steve, Robert, Laura, Justin and (forgive me I know I'll spell your name wrong) Zhenya. We had such a great time. Here are some (alot) of pictures from our trip.

We sure missed you guys but it looks like you had a ball! I love Craig as a blond. The tree looks very nice and so do the cute packages under it! My Mom loved seeing you all and I wanted to say thanks for stopping by and making her day!
Love this post! What fun memories - it really was fantastic, wasn't it? Thanks for making the trek and bringing all that yummy food! Miss you guys!
PS - can I just link your blog post on my blog? Save me having to post about Thanksgiving (and we know that probably won't happen till like Valentine's Day :) )
