Thanksgiving in Michigan

I always post too many pictures of my times with my family in Michigan, but I feel I'm entitled since I don't post much these days. Ha. Entitled to post pictures on my own blog?! I guess I can post whatever I want here... you don't HAVE to read it. :-) So... I flew up to Michigan for Thanksgiving and I sincerely missed being with my kids this year. But I was glad I didn't have to stay in Alabama alone. The real bummer is that I can't get the pictures in the order I want them on this laptop. So.... here they are in no logical order....

Mom had the great idea to teach us all to make German stars. Here is Melissa...

Notice: no pictures of my dad included because I am not to post pictures of him without his express written consent. Which I don't feel like asking for. :-)
