Time To Give Thanks For In-laws

Why is there delicious and amazingly fattening food on my table in the morning? What made that morning so special?


Mama and Papa W in the house y'all! They came for thanksgiving...now I know it's Christmas time and the last thing you want to relive is thanksgiving, but you are just going to have to deal with it and even like it!


When the in-laws come, we eat amazing foods. It's just what we do. Sometimes those foods involve Redi-whip...if I'm lucky.


Before our big thanksgiving feast, we went on a walk to earn the calories. Here Lynn and Judes adore and cherish the precious Max as we stroll.


Does Max love them? You better believe it!


It was an overcast and chilly day, but for some reason it suited us just fine and we had a great walk. We went out to the Old Green Bay Trail for our walk and coveted some of the homes out there.


Max's favorite game that day was for Caitlin or I to suddenly turn around and rush towards him.


Oh mom,you are hilarious.


But then the day was passing by and we had a date with dinner! But wait, you might ask...shouldn't you be home wasting your thanksgiving cooking? No, we shouldn't. Instead we did what we were born to do. We crashed Kellogg Business Schools huge thanksgiving dinner they throw for the students that can't go home for the holiday. We did the same thing last year. It's awesome, free and delicious.


Three handsome dudes who just want a bite.


And this is what we found...amazing. It wasn't my plate though because if it were it would be swimming in gravy.


Even Max found joy in stuffing, turkey and some mashed potatoes.


This is how we roll.


Over the week that Judes and Lynn stayed with us we ate a lot and laughed a lot.


Max was always excited to try food at each of the restaurants we chose, including Flat Top Grill.

The majority of our time was spent adoring this kid and watching him do his thing. This is him, doing his thing.


We also got out and did some stuff, like a self guided tour of the loop. We always have a great time when J and L come. They just know how to party.
