Thanksgiving Weekend!

 

It's the day after Thanksgiving and we are in Colorado Springs visiting Melissa and Dave. We had a fun day yesterday and as usual ate way too much, but it was just too good to pass up.   One of the highlights was when Melissa bought a can whipped cream.  We had a good time shooting whipped cream into our mouths.  Rand especially liked it, Kathryn would have nothing to do with it and Reese didn't know that he is supposed to swallow it.  Grandma was totally disgusted with us as she has been for years when we do that.

Dave, Troy and I went to Harry Potter last night at a late night dollar movie. Troy enjoyed the parts he didn't sleep through. As we were leaving the theater, we opened the door and a mouse ran into the theater. Maybe he was there to see "Ratatouille (sp) that was playing in theater #5.

The girls went shopping for a little while this afternoon. Tonight, Mom and I, along with Rebecca, Rand, Melissa and Kathryn saw "Enchanted." Melissa and Rebecca wanted to see it mostly because Dr. McDreamy is in it. Kathryn wanted to see it because it has a princess. We just needed to get Rand out of the house. His ongoing endeavor to become friends with Daisy took a terrible turn for the worse today. Anyway, about the movie. It's really good. A good time was had by all who attended.

Tomorrow is a big day of shopping and more football. I can't talk much about the football because I have been chastised about posting so much this week about the game. It's been really cold here in 'the springs'. The wind was howling as we came out of the movie tonight and along with the COLD temps, we just about froze our giblets walking to the car.

It's been a fun weekend. We aren't looking forward to the drive home on Sunday, but we've really enjoyed ourselves and Dave and Melissa have been good hosts. We have a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. We have been truly blessed and know that the Lord will continue to pour out His blessings on our family. Happy Thanksgiving, and go utes.
