The Lakes arrived late Wednesday night and then all the boys went to play in the annual Turkey Bowl the next morning. I had to laugh because Sabe was moaning & groaning about playing and saying he was too old to be playing football anymore. Well, apparently they played pretty well and Sabe threw a few touchdown passes, so he came home with a big of swagger and a much bigger head than when he left. They really did have a great time and they even included the little guys in the game as well.
Michele and I stayed home and did our thing in the kitchen. We always have such easy jobs as far as our contributions to the big meal goes. I made corn pudding, fresh green beans, and sugar cookies, while Michele made her green salad.
We headed over to the farm and had a really great meal. Julia always does an amazing job with setting the tables, which Olivia and Jaxon helped with the day before. You will have to notice the centerpiece--Julia ordered this from Hawaii. Isn't it awesome?
The rest of the day consisted of football and the kids making the chandeliers shake.
