Thanksgiving was full of friends, fun and food at the Campbell house. Mimi and Papa, Matt, Hilary and Jay, and Beau, Alexis, Ryker and Maddox came over for a Thanksgiving feast and LOTS of playing! We started the day in the "cave". Mimi and Papa just got new appliances at their house so they brought the washer/dryer box to play in....it was hours of fun (still is). Scott insisted Mimi or Papa be in the cave with him at all times. The picture above Hilary was lifting up a blanket covering the entrance to surprise the boys...they laughed harder each time! It was hilarious!
When Ryker got there it made for even more fun. The 3 oldest boys had a great time and got along really well. Ryker is such a good example for the littler boys....which is a good thing because there are even more little boys on the way.
I have zero pictures of the dinner portion of the evening...it was delicious chaos! After dinner was cleaned up we had pie and ice cream (with some gluten and dairy free choices too!). Ryker helped me serve everyone...he was such a wonderful helper....so careful and didn't spill a drop, but had he spilled it would have been ok because we had more than enough pie : )
Some of the guests enjoying desert and company.
Scott had some bites of ice cream and a little bit of whip cream too...he was delighted...
Mimi is always willing to give another bite!!!
So after pie and ice cream for all it was time to work off that energy. These 3 boys went absolutely wild...and surprisingly: no major injuries were sustained!
Baby dog pile on Uncle Beau!
The whole time we watched the boys run around, jump off of things, wrestle etc. I kept thinking to myself that this is only with 3 of them. Maddox was too little to join in the action this year and by next year Scott's little brother will be on the scene. Not to mention Hilary's sis in law is having a boy and so are our good friends Adam and Crystal. I'm really trying to encourage someone to build a foam pit with padded walls in their backyard or garage so we have a safe place for them all to be boys!
We had a wonderful time with our family and friends - we are so thankful for you, and for everyone we didn't get to spend the day with!
Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
Ehem. Are those Lidingo cabinets from Ikea? We are having our kitchen redone (right now) and have them. LOVE!
ReplyDeleteYou know it! We are so happy with how everything has turned out so far....the cabinets were such a steal.....now for counter tops...
