The Thursday of our Reunion was Thanksgiving day. I cannot remember the last time we were all together for Thanksgiving, maybe not since before we were little kids and our parents weren't divorced yet. It probably won't happen again for a very long time. Everyone shared the load of cooking. I think things turned out really good and it was fun to see what the other families have as must haves at their Thanksgiving. We played lots of games. The kids played outside. We rested. The boys all went to play football in the morning. It was a good day. Sadly, not one of us took a picture that day:(
Friday was our last day before going home. We decided to have the cousins buy a gift for one other cousin. The siblings draw names every year. We thought it would be fun to have everyone open their gifts when we were together instead of waiting for Christmas. Sarah even set up the tree the night before so the gifts could be wrapped and under the tree for the next morning. Everybody was happy. Then we went to the Elementary school to play some frisbee and just enjoy being outside. That night we had movie night with all the junk food. When the kids were in bed it was our last glorious night of games. Did I mention that our family loves to play games? It was a great low key day to end our fun reunion.
