Keeping up with a fairly new tradition, we once again ventured to Michigan to spend Thanksgiving at my parents' cottage. We were warmed by the heat of the wood burning stove and enjoyed beautiful naturesque views from the simple, quaint, two bedroom abode.
Our Thanksgiving feast was lovely (thanks to my mom). I was in charge of the pre-dinner snacks (hmmm...is somebody trying to tell me something about my cooking?). After dinner, Dom offered to do all of the dishes by hand (there's not a dishwasher at the cottage!) and recruited Maya and Kai as two eager helpers to be the "dryers".
The kids played endless games with their DiDi and Papa and even put on a 30min+ production of Annie. Kai made quite the turkey out of playdough and Maya and Kai completed a masterpiece on the old-fashioned lite brite (you know the one...we all had it growing up ...after 30 minutes of use it was hot enough to start a fire...but amazingly, never did).
Anyway, overall a very memorable Thanksgiving.
