Thanksgiving, Secret Missions and all things F

We had a fantastic Thanksgiving weekend. Kevin, Robin, Amanda and Alayna came for the long weekend so everyone was happy! There was plenty of food, football, floor hockey, Flint holding.........

There were several different parts to the weekend to I'll try to divide them up into sections......

[The Dinner]

Our table was blessed with: (starting from the left and up and around the table) Flint, Thea, Alayna, Nolan, Troy, Kevin, Robin, Amanda, Brya, Pat, Chester, Roger, Sue, Verlaine, Linda, Raelynn.

Brya showing outrage for the treatment of the turkey. She did eat some though..... (nice outfit)

What is Thanksgiving without the pies? Yum!

Thea tasting some of those yummy pies!

Kevin is great at following directions! I asked him to peel potatoes for me, enough to fill a couple pans. And he did!!........20 pounds worth (for 16 people mind you). Needless to say we really did have potatoes coming out of our ears......so Kevin made leftsa on Saturday morning. They were really good.

[BCF-Best Cousins Forever]

The kids have come up with a club called B.C.F. It also includes cousins from out west (see later in this post). It is cute to see them come up with different projects and mail things to each other.

I LOVE this picture of Amanda and Brya. Please, please stay this close girls!!!

Knot-a-Quilt was only one of the MANY projects this weekend.

[Mission]

The West Division of BCF sent out a secret mission for the kids to work on over the weekend. A Scavenger Hunt!! (The pictures were taken by the kids)

Olives and Cider.....of course!

[The Big Game]

BCF sponsored a floor hockey game between the BCF Club and THE DADS. Guess who let who win??

The program that the Moms were given.

Too many bosses!

Way to play goalie Alayna!!

The high five that never happened.

Got one by Dad!

Huddle (do they call it that in hockey?)

[Extra]

Flint's First French Fry

Nolan watching the Husky game.

Kevin and Troy got to go to a Louisville game at the new arena.

Looks like we had the perfect weekend..right??.......perfect timing, I guess. Our washing machine decided to stop spinning our clothes on Wednesday morning so Troy got to brave the Black Friday crowds and get a new one. I ran out of dish cloths and dish towels but we survived by using rags. Pretty....

Brya has been into walking laps in our backyard. She did it for like 3 weeks straight. She talked her cousins into coming out in the rain with her.

That's all.......whew, got this posted before Christmas!! :-)
