Thanksgiving

We lucked out by living within 5 hours of 3 different cousins for a while. So for the first time, I got to host Thanksgiving dinner, and we had 1/2 of the clan in attendance. So while everyone was there, we went to the Exploration Place. I had coupons for a lot of the cousins to get in, as well as on my membership, plus all the kids UNDER the age limit, so we ALL got in for free! It was really fun to take our cousins through to show them one of our favorite places to go in town.

My youngest sister, her husband and son looking at the wall - it had a lot of little sequence on it, then it had air blowing on it. You can adjust the air, so it shows how the thrust of an airplane works.

My little brother, his wife and 3 kids. This is in the part of the Exploration Place that is a castle. There is the throne for the king and queen here, so we made them pose!

The Omaha cousins (my little sister, her husband and 4 kids). There was a traveling exhibit at the time for gorilla's, and this nest was in it. It was a great photo spot!!

In my family, it is tradition to make candy turkeys for Thanksgiving. So here are the cousins making their candy turkeys.

And then I had an open stairway in our apartment, so we had all the kids line up. There were just enough stairs for all the cousins that were there!! (This is also 1/2 of the grandkids for my side of the family - for those of you keeping track!)
