Thanksgiving 2010

We had a fabulous Thanksgiving this year (just like every other year!).  This was the first year since we've been married that we had Thanksgiving at our house.  Up until this year, we had always gone up to Rochester to hang out with my parents and my brother and his family.  Well, this year, they all came to US!  It was awesome!!!  My brother, Mike and his wife, Crystal and family had never been down to our new house, so it was especially fun to have them here too.  They have 5 kids who kept our 2 kids entertained ALL weekend...it was great!  The kiddos LOVED jumping on the trampoline, playing dress-up, watching movies, and just having fun together.  The adults had a great time eating yummy food, talking, playing games, shopping, and just being together.  It was such a great weekend, no one wanted it to end!  Here are a bunch of pictures from our time together (many of them are courtesy of my dad...thanks!)

Bryn did a little photoshoot with my dad in her Guitar Dress

 We went to a humongous playground and the kids loved it!

 We also went to the Air & Space Museum.  Here is Mike's whole family in front on the space shuttle.
