We ended up having Thanksgiving twice, which seems to becoming the normal as we split up our time between two families. We hosted Thanksgiving at our house for half of Mary's side of the family (the other half of the family was unable to attend). It was a very pleasant and relaxed Thanksgiving; the Simrak's hosted a brunch in the morning where most of the family was able to get together and then over to our house for the afternoon and evening.
Jeremy had to work on Friday this year, but after work we all piled into the car and headed up to Jeremy's parents house. We spent the night there and had Thanksgiving again the next day with Jeremy's side of the family (short a few people who were too far away to travel).
The kids caught colds, Abbie had fevers during that time and everyone sacrificed a little bit of sleep, but we all immensely enjoyed being together with our extended families. Below are a few photos to prove it...

I have to say, I love those blocks! I've been wanting some big wooden blocks for the boys.
