Thanksgiving weekend at Leanne & Don’s

		The gang watched football.

		Amelia shows off her Hello Kitty blanket to Grandma and Rita (Don’s mom.)

		Grandma and Amelia play with Teddy the racoon.

		Amelia and Ellis draw.

		Uncle Don keeps Ellis under control. Is Ellis about to get a spanking from Aunt Leanne?

		Despite several pies available for eating, Amelia decides to taste the scraps of fleece left over from Aunt Leanne’s tie-blanket projects.

		Is Don in trouble again?

		Bruce and Becky pretend not to be instigators.

		The real troublemakers?

		This horse soon gave out, so the riders decided to play "sandwich." Click the picture to view the video.

		Leanne, Beth and I braved Kohls in the early (but not too early) morning on Black Friday.

		Monte and I spent some time in Omaha’s Old Market to celebrate my birthday. (This isn’t us in the carriage–we weren’t going to spend the money for that.)

		We had a wonderful lunch at Vivace.



		I wish I had shelves of books like this at home…

		Monte contemplates Plato.
