We had a great Thanksgiving at the coast with family! It was relaxing, mostly good weather, great food, and the kids were having so much fun with their cousins that I don't think I heard one fight amongst the 16 kids. Amazing!! It was truly a wonderful couple of days!
All the kids were really into card games like Uno and Blink.
We had the traditional Thanksgiving feast. Of course it was delicious!
Some of the younger kids!
Andrew and Grant at the "big boys" table.
We spent quite a bit of time down at the pier where some of the kids tried out crabbing. They had a ton of fun, but didn't catch anything big enough to keep.
Uncle Jared was kind enough to chaperone many of the older kids at the pier 2 days in a row! What a guy!
And we always enjoy hot cocoa after being down at the cold beach.
But I think the favorite part for the kids was when there was a brown out and most of the electicity went out. Grandpa gave all the kids finger flashlights to use. They still were able to play their card games and have a fun time!
Grandma had the coolest light of all! The flash makes it seem light, but it was very dark!
The next morning, the kids were determined to head back at the pier and try out crabbing one last time. No luck, but again, lots of fun!!And the following Monday, we had more excitement! After 4 weeks, it was time for Kristen's cast to come off!
One last cast pic
She said it tickled when they took it off!
And it's off! Good as new!! So happy to be able to wear all her clothes again!
