Thanksgiving

We had Thanksgiving at our house again this year. It was alot of fun even though we were missing some very important people. The good news is that they all got to be with family in Illinois also.
Megan helped me make the food during the day. She really liked peeling the potatoes.
We all sat down to eat together. I don't know what Alex is doing here but he seemed to think he was pretty funny.
Jim (Mike's Dad), Megan, Mike and Steve (My Dad). My Dad and his wife, Bonnie.
The men decided to teach Alex how to play poker after dinner. He had so much fun. He got excited when he won a hand a pouted when he lost. I guess he has a few things to learn about the game. :)
Alex was getting some tips from my Dad.
Megan and Marilyn (Mike's Mom).
Megan and Marilyn made a gingerbread house that Bonnie brought. It turned out really good. It is setting on our table now. It's a perfect center piece.
We got some pictures of the whole family.

Alex looks like the deer in headlights in both of these. I don't know why he won't just smile. I think he gets that from his Dad. We had a really fun Thanksgiving. It was a nice day. Thanks to everyone for coming.
