Corny Thanksgiving

We had Thanksgiving at our house this year. My parents, Nanny and Papaw, came up along with my brother Ken and his family (Amanda, Hannah, Hollie, and Miss Kathryn). We had a ton of yummy food. We had fried turkey, baked turkey breast, cornbread dressing, sweet potato casserole, green beans wrapped in bacon, macaroni and cheese, creamed corn, homemade yeast rolls, gooey pumpkin bars, buttermilk pie, pecan pie, and chocolate meringue pie. Ken and Amanda also brought strawberry salad and broccoli salad. Can you say, "TONS OF FOOD"?

Matt did an awesome job frying the turkey - his best yet!


Hannah came up on Tuesday with Nanny and Papaw, and the boys loved her. She loved our computer. This is where Jack was if Hannah was playing on the computer. :)


Here is Hannah with the boys watching TV...


On Wednesday night, we tried the pumpkin bars to make sure they were good which meant we needed the Ready Whip. Matt sprayed it into his mouth, and Trent thought that was hilarious. So Matt commenced to spraying it into everyone's mouth. Here is Trent. He was the last victim...


After Thanksgiving lunch, we watched UP while Matt and the kids took naps. After the movie, we got our game on. Matt has been dying to play some cornhole, so we drew teams and started a tournament. We played several times with Matt and Ken being the big winners. I don't know the exact record, but I am sure you could ask either of them to find out. ;)

Here are some pictures from our friendly games...

Matt thinks that he is the King of the Cornhole Hill


Ken begs to differ...


Hollie got the hang of it after a little while


Amanda said that she wished Mooreville High School had a cornhole team so Hannah could be good at a sport. :)


Hannah said that the same goes for Amanda


Papaw had good form...


I am obviously serious about the game...


Jack thought that the tourney was edge of your seat entertainment.


Jack was wandering around, but he didn't want to sit on the cold ground, so he popped a squat on his lawnmower...


After we finished, we sat around the firepit and enjoyed the warmth while Jack enjoyed popping bubbles...
