Home again, home again jiggity jig

We ventured to Peoria for Thanksgiving, which is pretty much our usual plan.

Devin was thrilled to see Uncle Carson & Aunt Catherine! She followed both around the house and asked them to play with her pretty much constantly.

We played cards.

We had tea parties.

We looked in amazement horror at many dead animals, while visiting a cousin's house.

So beautiful...and so dead:(

I guess there are plenty of zebras in Africa.

There was putting green, which made Devin and Matt very happy:)

Apparently, I interrupted their office game.

Pies, pies and more pies.

Connect Four Anyone? We play it in a very different way. All you have to do is fill up the squares and let them out!!

Dev spent the whole weekend dressed up in one costume or another. She rotated between polar bear, kitty and clown.

We all played Scrabble.

And, as always...we sang and danced to the piano music.

C&C brought their dogs. I learned the only thing harder than taking pictures of children is pets.

I took over 50 shots of the dogs and got maybe 3 decent ones.

Looks like Devin had a nice visit with family. I love the outfit she is wearing on the putting green, so cute. It is nice that she also likes to play dress up. Love kids with an imagination!
We had 22 here for Thanksgiving! I come from a large family and love when we are all together.
