This year we spent Thanksgiving day at the Ritter's house. All the boys were home from school and it was a fun day. As soon as we walked in the front door we saw Austin doing pushups in the living room with the other boys crowded around counting and critiquing. I said, "typical". It is so fun to see all those boys together playing! Papa and Nana prepared a gourmet thanksgiving meal. Grilled turkey and ham, cranberry sauce, lentil soup, roasted brussel sprouts with sweet potatoes and onions, baked potato wedges with mustard seed, fresh green beans with sundried tomatoes and pine nuts, homemade pumpkin pie and homemade cranberry apple pie. It was delicious.

Addison devoured Papa's pie!
As soon as we finished eating it was time for another game...who can hold the pencil out in front of them the longest game. They were all so determined to win until someone tooted. Typical. It was a close game, but Austin won.
Addison loves that Nana and Papa have shelves and shelves of books. Benjamin and Nana read to her.

After playing poker, the boys decided to play badminton. I LOVE these pictures of them!
