Thanksgiving fun

We had such a fun Thanksgiving this year!! On Wednesday night, the Maczkowicz family came to Billings!!! How perfect that Ali is 8 and Alec is 5. The kids were so excited to have friends that got to sleep over for FOUR NIGHTS! And, Teresa and I loved that they all had someone to play with (the poor kittens NEVER got a break though!). We spent Thursday (Thanksgiving Day) at the house. The kids and dads went on a hike on the rims and they LOVED that. Then they played their hearts out before supper. Teresa and I worked on our plan for Friday morning shopping....it was a great match.

Here are the kids on Thanksgiving before eating! :)

Friday morning at 3am the guys left to go look for an elk (no luck unfortunately). Then at 4:15 am the girls left to look for some great deals (and got plenty of them!). We got home at 9am completely exhausted only to find out the kids had JUST gotten up...and were still in jammies and didn't even have breakfast yet! :) Figures! We were able to go to the Holiday parade on Friday night and the kids enjoyed that!

On Saturday we drove to Red Lodge to show them the mountains, the cabin and even the ski resort that just opened the previous day. It was a great time, but we wanted more time up there! We got home to find Brad and Chris home and relaxed at home that night. We had so much fun with them here and hope they can come out again REALLY SOON! :) Thanks so much for coming to stay and play with us, Brad, Teresa, Ali and Alec :)
