Thanksgiving in Ohio

Happy Thanksgiving! After a very smooth 12 hour drive we arrived at my (Kim's) parent's to spend a few days with them over the holiday. All the kids traveled really well - we got up around 4:30 am and dragged them out of bed, right into the van, and off we went.
The last time we were in Ohio was just prior to moving to Minnesota so Nate and Sarah were very excited to be there and right away stated exploring the house. My mom and dad are avid collectors and antique lovers so you never know what new things they are going to have around. The kids love to play with the "old-fashioned" things they have like the sausage maker and cash register. Right away they found a wig and hat that was upstairs and thought it was really funny for everyone to try it on. We all gave it a try and couldn't decide if we looked more like Slash or Diana Ross :-).
We spent Thanksgiving day playing games, watching football, and eating lots of great food! Mom & Dad's good friends joined us for dinner and enjoyed meeting Natalie for the first time. Tucker didn't come with us, he was at the kennel, but I included a picture of him for those who haven't seen him.

On Friday, Nana & Papa surprised the kids with tickets to the circus. It's been a long time since Nate & Sarah have been and Sarah especially enjoyed the show. After we got back to the house they decided to put on a "circus" for us. Check out the "ball acrobatics" and the "sharp shooting". Fun time for all!
