This past February (2014), my parents moved to Jackson, Michigan, where my dad got a preaching job at the Horton Road Church of Christ. This was our first time to visit them at their new house, which had plenty of room for all 16 of us! My mom and dad, myself, Bill, Eli, Brady and Major, my brother DJ, his wife Holly, and their 3 kids (Haley, Katie, and Tyler), my brother, James, and my sister Rebekah and her husband Dan and daughter Tori were all there. Words cannot express how great it was to have everyone together.
Thanksgiving morning, we had to play the Turkey Bowl before there was any dinner preparations. We played adults vs. kids and the adults won big time! :)
Here is the before shot: Major, Rachel (me), Eli, Bill, Tyler in front, DJ, Haley, Katie and Brady, and Holly behind them.
Here we are, marching out to the game field.
Time to play!
Sorry, Eli and Brady, no way you are catching Uncle DJ!
Daddy throws a spectacular pass to Uncle DJ in the end zone!
Aunt Holly's fast, too!
The kids scored! Here are Eli and Brady celebrating!
So sad they lost: Eli, Brady, Katie, and Haley
The winners! Bill, Rachel, DJ, Holly
Look at those hops on Bill and DJ!
My mom and I after the game. :)

Now that the game is over, it is time to cook! Here are my mom and Bekah getting the turkey ready.
Everyone at the table enjoying Thanksgiving Dinner together!
After the meal, Katie, Eli, Brady, and Haley put on a play of the first Thanksgiving for us.
They were precious!
Happy Thanksgiving! We love our crazy family!
