Happy Thanksgiving

We celebrated Thanksgiving with Brad's family in Hoffman this year. We had such a nice time and ate sooooo much good food!

We have a friend who has a "Weigh In - Weigh Out" contest with his family each year for Thanksgiving. When they arrive at the door for Thanksgiving, they have to weigh themselves before they start to eat. At the end of the day, they weigh themselves again to see who gained the most weight. I think we'll try this next year. They hand out a prize to the biggest gainer in their family each year!! I think the winner gets to take home the scale. Too Funny. :)

On Friday evening, Brad, Christy & I went to a comedy show in Alexandria. The comedians were Scott Hansen & the Stagebenders.

The Stagebenders, a comedy improv duo based part-time in Las Vegas and part-time in Minneapolis, bring big bodies and big laughs to each show they perform. Armed with their great sense of humor and non-stop dialogue and actions, these two guys can make just about any word, situation, or prop turn into a top-notch comedy skit. They have appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and NBC’s America’s Funniest People.

Scott Hansen is the unprecedented, 5-time winner of the Minnesota Comedian of the Year award. This is not an easy task in a state that is the comedy home of Louie Anderson, Tom Arnold, and Al Franken! His national reputation has earned him a spot as a regular fixture appearing in concert with superstars Jay Leno, Jerry Seinfeld and Drew Carey. The award winning comedian has made millions laugh with gut-splitting national TV appearances on HBO, Showtime, A&E and E!.

I would highly recommend seeing these guys! They were totally awesome!! :)

Emmy stayed home with Grandma Debbie & Great Grandma Bev. She had fun playing with Shelby, Maya & Madisen. They played so well and pooped Emmy out.

On Saturday, we celebrated grandma Bev's birthday & my birthday. We ate at Whiskey Creek in Alexandria and had a nice time with the big family. There were about 25 of us at our table. Emmy even got a little taste of ice cream from mommy's birthday cake.

Emmy enjoyed playing in the exersaucer at Grandma Debbie's house. She giggled & played so much in it this weekend.

Emmy loves to sit on daddy's lap!! They look a lot alike!

And her new thing is to suck on her two fingers.
