Thanksgiving

This year Mike and I had Thanksgiving in Kansas. We were in Oklahoma a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving for my dad's alumni basketball game so we got to see my dad's side of the family then. We also got to shoot guns, walk around my grandma's farm and visit my cute cousins. Here are a couple of pictures from that weekend in Oklahoma.

 

So on to Thanksgiving. Mike and I piled into the car and headed to Kansas. It was very cold when we got there. I'm so glad Mike told me to pack some warm clothes! We got to visit with his parents and siblings and then Mike and I headed downtown and walked around. We love window shopping in downtown Lawrence. On Thanksgiving Day, Carmen and Dave had all the family in Lawrence to their house and I got to meet a lot of the family. They had around 25 people over to their house, and there was food for about 50! All the food was SO good though! We stuffed ourselves and got to visit with everyone. After everyone left, Mike, Juni and I went over to Best Buy so I could buy a TV. They opened at 8pm for Black Friday and when we drove up at 7:30pm it looked like this:

We waited in line and got in while they still had quite a bit of stuff left. I had my eye on the 46" or 50" flat screen TV, but with Mike and Juni with me I ended up buying the 55". :) They also talked me into buying an Apple TV (which was SUCH a good idea). I got a great deal on both items! It was a great Thanksgiving Day. The next day Carmen and I got to go on a walk over to KU. She showed me some of the main buildings on campus and we got to talk a lot. That evening the family headed over to Kansas City to see the lights downtown. It was beautiful. Cold, but beautiful.

We had a great time in Kansas for Thanksgiving. Here is one more picture of Mike wearing Elijah's hat.
