Turkey day!!




After months of planning and much anticipation...



it was finally time to put the platter to use and host our first Thanksgiving!




First we had to introduce our families. It was really tense.


Zachary and Megan helped break the ice by wearing matching track suits...and helped emphasise the height difference in the family.


The ladies from Edina flash the "E"



Even though she is pregnant with twins, Tara makes a guest appearance at the party!



The spread on the actual Turkey day was amazing! We only made the birds--
the family really stepped up!

There were crafts. Decorating sand dollars with paint, glitter, and stickers.




Some of the stickers were also for face decorating.



Chloe Naviv and Corrine Naviv--
Team Viv!



The beach was a big hit!






One dad gets to chill and watch the ocean for a minute...




It wasn't a challenge to find things in common
(I am pretty sure hunting is being discussed here).



Gernes' love the board games-- they even travel with their own!



Fishing was amazing! Such a beautiful day and such a great crew.



Oh, and we caught a few fish while we were out there.

Not pictured but some amazing memories:
Hanging in the pool with the Miller crew
Chole's awesome kids Jack and Isabel
The boys (big and little) playing football in the sand
Children's fight club that was established in our garage
The Miller boys all being together!

Overall, one fantastic turkey day!
Thank you all again for all the help and we can't wait to see you all again soon.
