Thanksgiving

We were in Iowa for 5 days or so for Thanksgiving to spend the time with my family. I made some cute cookies but all the pictures I took of them were fuzzy, and not fixable, so here are a couple pictures from the internet of the same thing. Also, for various reasons, that I don't know if I am at liberty to discuss here because I am not sure if things are suppose to be surprises or not, BUT, we gave my parents their Christmas present early this year(so we could play with it as well) but we(Austin, Katy, Tom and I) all went in together and got my parents a Wii, and then we bought an extra bundle thing along with it instead of us siblings exchanging gifts...so that was SO FUN! we all had a great time playing with that for MANY hours...we also spent quite a bit of time shopping on Friday, and well just over the weekend in general...but got most all our Christmas shopping done which was nice, but also we didn't have a lot of gifts to get this year, so it wasn't that hard. then the ugh part was when we left on Sunday...it took us longer to get home because we were stopped several times because of traffic but mostly the weather with it snowing, and accidents, etc...but we made it home safely without any problems...ok, now to the fun Christmas decorations post...oh but first the cookie pictures...

Cute cookies! Glad you guys had a good time in Iowa. Family Wii time is always fun! Alex and I went home on 80 on Sunday and had SLOW traffic, too...he was whiny :)
