our final Thanksgiving hoorah!

We had our final Thanksgiving celebration at Mark's mom and dad's house Saturday evening.

It was a lot of fun! Almost all of the family was able to come--his mom and dad, Colten (Mark's step-brother) and his girlfriend Teri, Kim (Mark's step-brother's wife, his brother was off fishing!), Brittany (Mark's other step-brother's wife, his brother had to work!) and her two kids Dakota (3) and Khia (8 months), and Matthew (his brother)!

The evening plans were to eat, eat, eat and play some friendly poker while grandma played with her grandkids! Mark's dad made lots of yummy food and we (the kids) contributed a little bit...we brought a (really yummy) chocolate silk pie--thank you Perkins!

Isaiah had a blast! Before the games began for me, Cindy (Mark's step-mom) got out her microphones (she owns a DJ business) and let Dakota and Isaiah sing into them They both thought they were really cool...and really they were just down right adorable...check them out:





After the singing, the poker games began, so downstairs I went while Cindy and Kim watch the four little ones...They had lots of fun and even got to play dress up...


The little, little ones had fun too!!

The little ones continued to play and the big kids continued to play cards...and before we knew it, it was way past bed time! Thankfully I remembered to bring Isaiah's jammies and Dakota and Isaiah had a pajama party while we hung out a little longer...


...and by then it was 9:45 and Isaiah needed to go to sleep!! So we headed home, what a great way to finish celebrating Thanksgiving!
