Mom and Dad were able to come up on Wednesday to join Cooper for his Thanksgiving Feast at Raintree. The children spend all month preparing food for the event -- corn casserole, rolls, cranberry relish, pumpkin cake, mashed potatoes, peanut brittle, dressing, butter (made by shaking cream!). It's a fun event, and Coop was glad to have his grandparents there.
Back at home, Coop and Grandpa Cecil did some science experiments and played "will it float":
On Thanksgiving day, we hosted Alan's folks, plus a couple of students (one from Baker and one from Washburn) who weren't going home for the holiday. The only photo I took, though, was of my serving dishes, which I love:
The brown bowl from Grandma Farm's house, the silver tray that Grandpa Farm won at a brown swiss (cow) show, the square plate I bought just because I loved it, the oval serving platter we got as a wedding gift from one of my favorite law school professors, and the big white bowl I found at a garage sale for $1.
They were eventually filled with yummy food, and we had a great day. Tomorrow, time to dig out Christmas decorations!
