We went over to my parents house looking like bums and enjoyed a delicious breakfast made by my mother. It consisted of: Pancakes, buttermilk syrup, fruit, and bacon. mmm mmm good. Tanner and I continued to look homely all day, but we were too lazy to go home and shower. My hubby and my bro played halo for a couple hours, we played settlers, played a little basketball, watched football, and just relaxed. When it was time for the thanksgiving dinner, my mom doesn't have an oven because both of them broke, so we used 3 of our neighbors oven. The turkey was in the Carey's oven, the stuffing was in the Lovell's oven, and the rols were in Claudia's oven. It was a riot. The turkey didn't cook as expected, so we ended up eating at 6 p.m. BUT it was delicious. We went around the table 3 times and said one thing we were grateful for. We stayed and played some more games after that, and then tanner and I went home and relaxed by ourselves.
The next morning, we drove to his parents house in Ashton. All of his siblings and their kids were there, so that was really fun. The activities at the Stevens household consisted of: christmas tree hunting in the middle of nowhere, chopping down a 20 foot tree, playing ticket to ride, playing kinect, (we got it on black friday and it is fun!!!!!)watching Christmas Vacation, (oh that movie was hilarious) and just playing with all the kids!! His oldest sister Jessica is pregnant and due in February so we put together a little shower for her. Guests didn't show up until the shower was supposed to get over. It was interesting. We made homemade ice cream woth liquid nitrogen with delicious brownies, ate like pigs, and decorated the christmas tree. We also made gingerbread houses, and pretty sure tanner and I won!!!! hahahahahaha we rocked. Anyway, we had a lot of fun this year, hope Christmas is even BETTER!!!!
Sounds like a whole lot of eating, relaxing and doing things you've never done before! It was a great day...thanks for sharing some of it with us!!!!
