We woke up on "Thanksmas" and had breakfast in G'ma Debbie's room.
Then headed to the Mleynek farm to spend the day with family.
Mason was there with us too, so Cooper spend some more time with him.
Soon everyone was there and we gathered around for the meal.
We had a good old fish fry! With fish Grandpa Don caught.
After lunch the boys headed out to look around the farm.
And chase cats.
They actually caught one!
Then back inside we took advantage of a chance at a photo op.
This is the first time we met Raelyn and all four Mleynek cousins have been together.
Grandma & Grandpa jumped in for one too.
Then we took one with the greats.
Once we were all seated in the living room...
We started in with an annual tradition. The boys helped draw names out of a bucket...
And that was the person who got to pick an ornament next.
Cooper picked a bird nest.
Next there were a few gifts exchanged, mostly in check form.
These guys had a necklace for Great G'ma.
And since we won't see Raelyn during Christmas, we got her a gift.
...which she loved and kissed.
(Or tried to eat?)
Derek played with his newest nephew, Mason.
And eventually put him to sleep.
Miles put himself to sleep, just by sitting still.
After he helped build this snow chimney with Cooper.
We headed back to our condo for the night and Aunt Mikiah played a game with the boys.
When they weren't snuggling Mason.
We all took a turn.
