Below are Abby and Amelia on Thanksgiving day. The girls like to play games against each other on their DSi gaming systems but they took a break for two minutes so that I could snap this sweet photo.
Below are John and George on Thanksgiving Day. Scott and his brothers engaged all the children (but especially the boys) in playing football and other sports games on the front lawn. You can tell from how sweaty John is that the boys loved playing with their uncles.
Below are the boys and uncle Nick with their footballs.
Meanwhile out on the back porch uncle Chris was the man in charge of cooking the turkeys. The Wilsons prepared three turkeys (!), two were fried and one was grilled. In the photo below the turkey in the back had just come out of the fryer and Chris was preparing the other one to go into the fryer.
All four cousins below on the swing on the back porch. I try to take this photo in the same place each year.
The "silly" pose after the more serious shot of the four above.
Our Thanksgiving meal was delicious! Mrs. Wilson goes all out to prepare many southern-style family Thanksgiving favorites. Check out how blessed we were with this bountiful feast: the three turkeys mentioned above, baked ham, cornbread dressing, Mrs. Wilson's infamous macaroni and cheese, green beans, collard greens and sweet potato casserole. YUM!Yesterday we did zero Black Friday shopping and instead we all went bowling. We had a large group - all four Wilson brothers, Scott's parents and the four grandchildren (plus me, the family photographer).
I thought these large bowling pins outside the alley were a riot and the kids were quite cooperative to pose with them.
