Happy Thanksgiving

The Thankgiving day groupWe had a busy Thanksgiving as usual. We headed down Thursday morning to Grandma Chris's where we had a wonderful thanksgiving dinner with family and our friends Kendra, her mother and Mary-Anne. That night we worked off some of the turkey dinner playing on Uncle Bobby's Wii. Meg got really good at bowling, rolling a high score of 157.

Friday morning we drove down to Indy to enjoy a brisk fall day with the Mcleans. Meg and Zach ran and played with their cousins. The highlight of the trip was the S'mores on the campfire.

Before heading back to Chicago We did breakfast with Josh at the Route 66 dinner (recently featured on the food network).

The rest of the weekend was pretty normal Church and pizza on Saturday and a little geocaching on Sunday.

Meg and Zach with Will

Meg and Zach with WillMeg's school was out Thursday and Friday. She got to do some cool activities. Thursday she saw the new LaGrange library and saw Bee Movie. That night we had Meg's Parent Teacher conference at school. It went well. Friday Meg did gymnastics in the morning and then we went to a ceramic cafe in the afternoon.

This weekend was pretty uneventful. We tried to stay pretty low-key as we're expecting some busy weekends between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Sunday afternoon we spent time with Christa, Bill and Will. He sure is growing fast.

Tiny Dancers

I am getting back on the movie bandwagon and this is my latest. Here is some video from May 2005. We were having a music night and Meg and Zach were dancing up a storm. Even mom got in on the action and cut a rug!
