Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving my Grandma Bandy and Great Aunt Pat came up to visit from Redding. My mom went there to pick them up and came back. On Thanksgiving day we didn't do much. We watched a few movies and then went over to Brent's brothers, Bruce,  house for dinner. All my family  except Noah and Hunter came because they were at their dad's. Brent's sister Holly, a few of  Bruce's kids came also. The dinner was delicious. We had mashed potatoes, green beans with bacon, turkey, ham, rolls, salad, sparkling cider, and stuffing. After dinner some of my cousins (all older and in their 20's) went to play bad mitten. We hit the birdie around but didn't play a full on game. Once someone hit the birdie over the fence and  I had to climb over it to get it. After bad mitten we went inside to play  some games. We played Apples to Apples first  then Pit. Pit  is a game where you have to get all the cards the same by trading with some one, but you don't know the other's card. We got bored with Pit and played spoons. Kind of like musical chairs but with spoons. The person who spells spoon first loses. After all the games we were pretty tired and left to go home. 
 After Thanksgiving my grandma and aunt Pat stayed until Monday. It was a little hectic with four dogs in the house. Our two dogs and grandma's two Yorkies. One happened to be a rescue dog and was scared around everyone and all dogs, but after a while got used to us. We went shopping on black friday, went out to lunch at a deli, and watched Four Christmases. On Sunday my mom and I gave them their little gift baskets for Christmas and they were very happy. Then on Monday Brent went to take them home to Redding.
