Thanksgiving

This year we invited some friends of ours over for Thanksgiving dinner. The women slaved in the kitchen all day while the kids played. They made a ship with the couch pillows and sailed all over the place. We were a bit nervous hosting it but everything turned out great. We didn't eat until a little after 4:00 because we were waiting for one of our friends to get home from work. Amazingly all of the food was hot and ready right when he arrived, that takes some timing. The comment was made after dinner that it is crazy that we spent several hours cooking the food but it only took 20 minutes to eat and be full. Later we went over to their house to eat the pies and homemade peppermint ice cream (Ashlee made an apple pie that was out of this world) they were all tasty. We also played some games on their Wii which we found out we cannot play very well. Ashlee missed the times that we would go and heard the cows around Thanksgiving time with my family so she thought she would try cow throwing, as you can see she throws pretty hard. We all had a great day with our friends but missed having more family around. (Nick)
