Thanksgiving

Phil's surgery was over Thanksgiving. We were most thankful that Grandpa and Grammie came to our rescue. They came over to our house for several days and then we went to theirs. Out of the pictures I took, I noticed there were none of Grammie (Phil's mom). This is because she was always up working...cooking, cleaning, buying or taking care of the kids. Thanks, Grammie!

The kids love Grandpa because he will sit for hours and let them tie him up. He'll play "good guy, bad guy" (poor Grandpa always has to be the bad guy), read to them, and even provide a lap for the cat to get some love.

Here is one of the Chambers' traditions...making candy in an assembly line. The picture doesn't do it justice as there are about 12 people in the line and loads of candy in the making (and the eating.)

Of course, all the cousins (and Uncle Lee) and neighbor kids played Red Rover, Red Rover and other classic games.

While in Georgia, I finally found some Georgia cheerleading outfits for the girls.

Here is Lily in her signature, ballerina pose...

And Kate in her signature, hop-on-one foot-while- throwing a ball pose...

As soon as we got back home, the girls wanted to make their Gingerbread houses.

Thanks, again, Grammie and Grandpa for a great Thanksgiving!
