First Ever Iowa Thanksgiving 2011

The day before, the girls decided to tackle Daddy... check out Abigail's shoes

Great Grandma Pearl still knows how to cook :)

It was 70 degrees, so the girls got to run-- A LOT!



Closest to a normal family pic we can get.

Sammy practices kissing her frogs before finding her prince.

The sequence of trying to get a good picture with Great Grandma Iowa is rather amusing... here's a few...

The girls were saying thanks for cooking a great meal Grammy Iowa!

Sammy was desperately hoping for a Hawkeye victory, while Abbie had turned her jersey in on Friday.
