On Thursday we hosted Kaiser Thanksgiving at our place. Before church Dad and the boys did some work with the cattle.
Thursday before church.
I think Dad was getting ready to test the potatoes.
Brooke putting out pies.
I think this is supposed to be of the food, but Lance evidently decided they needed a picture of him instead.
There we go.
We had three tables set up in the basement. This table is the older kids.
Here's the younger boys. Brandon wanted Kaitlyn to sit at his table, so she did.
And here’s the younger girls.
Aunt Joyce and several other people scrounged up 35 bucks between them and then paid Jacob to jump into the lake. Here's Aunt Joyce handing over her money.
Jenna, Amy, Lily, Ruby, Samuel, Kinsey, Jewel, Josh, Brandon, Brandi, and I played Capture the Flag for awhile.
After I played for a bit I took Kiowa, and we looked at the animals and played in the backyard.
We played a couple of songs due to a few requests.
Kaitlyn and Jenna also did a violin duet.
Kiowa could hardly wait for supper. She had to have a little snack of apples.
A little Dutch Blitz was going on while we were waiting for supper.
After supper, we had a little recital. It was mostly guitars and pianos, although we did have a kazoo and a comb kazoo. There was a fair amount of laughter during some of the songs. Let’s just say that some of the participants had some funny songs, which they played/sang in a very funny way.
Jacob’s comb kazoo.
Over all it was a great day of hanging out with cousins,talking, playing outside, playing inside, and for one person swimming in a frigid lake. Glad a lot of people could come. After all, the more the merrier.
Oh, and Jacob also said that he actually enjoyed his swim in the lake. ha ha ha. He probably enjoyed the 35 dollars more than the actual swim.
