Aunt Laura came into town Tuesday afternoon and babysat so Mom and Dad could go to the NIU football game. Unfortunately, it was very cold and they played bad so they lost to Navy. Then Wednesday evening, the rest of the crew arrived. Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Joe, Aunt Cheryl (Grandma's sister), and Katelyn made the trek through the holiday traffic from Minnesota and arrived just before my bedtime.
Thursday--we had the traditional Thanksgiving feast with turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, cranberries, scalloped corn, green bean casserole, and pumpkin pie, of course! It was delicious. I loved everything and cleaned my plate. We even got to play outside for a little bit.
Friday--the girls got up at 4 am to go shopping for some crazy reason. The rest of the afternoon was spent watching movies and taking naps. But, then they took Katelyn and me back to the mall later to see Santa Claus and the Christmas decorations. It was still pretty crowded.
Saturday--the whole gang went downtown to Chicago (except Daddy who had to stay home to do homework). We took a train, went on a bus tour, stopped at Navy Pier, saw lots of pretty Christmas lights and some really big Christmas trees!
I guess that's all for now. I better get to bed so Mom can go cheer on the Vikings--beat those Bears!! Not to mention, it looks like there might be some snow for us to shovel in the morning!...
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
Until next time,
Conor
