Thanksgiving fun

We had a fantastic time hosting some of the Judson's (and Miller's and Kowallis'...but they're all Judson's at heart anyway) at our house again this year. And since I was so incredibly busy trying to make sure everyone didn't starve no pictures were captured of the actual "Thanksgiving Feast". Rest assured everyone ate well and we had sufficient amounts of left overs this year. Except for the Cheese Ball and Fudge. I don't think we would ever have leftovers of Cheese Ball and Fudge no matter how much I made.

Some of us attempted Black Friday shopping. Some of us stayed home (me!). All of us went to multiple Dirt Cheap locations and we even decided to have a last minute White Elephant gift exchange.

Saturday turned out to be a beautiful day so we took the kids over to a park in Petal that we've never been to. Turns out it was a fantastic idea because this park is awesome. It's geared to both big and little kids. And I think the adults had more fun than the kids.




There were these two gigantic slides, I've never seen slides so big. I think Tanner was the first one up and he went down the red one first. He literally came shooting out the end about 3 feet and landing on his bum. Everyone (including Tanner) was a little shocked and then we're all cheering and laughing so he doesn't freak out.


No freak out in sight. He actually went down both slides multiple times. The Blue slide is a little more tame.


Hi Brayden!


It took some convincing but Lana finally decided to try the Blue slide.

We all had a blast. Definitely going back to that park when it warms up!

I don't know if I would go down that slide. Good job Tanner! That looks like a park my kids would love.

Too bad we didn't get a picture documenting Scott and Paul's "wheelbarrow" maneuver down that crazy wall. :)
