Headed to Missouri for Thanksgiving.... It turned out to be pretty entertaining.. we did LOTS of shopping, actually Im pretty sure thats all we did.. We did the typical turkey dinner, watched some football and played a few "family" games. The Nelson crew had a pretty good time making fun of each other, talking about childhood memories and most of all eating.. and eating.. and eating...
Deb and Laney took us to this delicious.. ,,I mean nasty tea shop.. apparently they love this place, its called BOBA.. Its any sort of fruity juice, smoothie or hot drink filled with these small, gooey, sticky balls of weirdness that stick in your teeth.. I think it comes from Japan.. strange but worth trying..

We had to take at least one cheesy Christmas shot..

Hmmmm.... lookin sexy

For all you fairy lovers...

Our jumping skills...

Ty apparently shreds the guitar while he jumps..

We went to this shopping town, St. Charles, Its right on the Missouri River, cute, old and full of Christmas stores... wow.. did we find some treasures..!!

Kettle corn was a hit.. Braden was obviously enjoying it.

Who sells penguins for Christmas?.. honestly..

We went and toured the Anheiser Busch brewery, here is one of the Clydesdale's, beautiful horses.. ya know, the ones you see in the commercials..Look how humongous his hoofs are!???

Missouri has some pretty cool walking/running trails,.. after eating as much as we did it was almost necessary we burned some calories.. in the car ride back.

Its shortly before 4am.. yes, we were waiting in line at Kohls for some hot deals..

Natalie, Deb and Chas were up late looking at the ads and making a list of where and what time to get the best deals.. It was a shopping adventure!

THis is pretty much what Ty, Nate and I did for 45 min while the others were shopping and waiting in line.. This store had some top notch massage chairs..

Natalie enjoying breakfast..

MMM... caramel pull aparts..

Deb and Laneys house had a few leaves to rake.. Thanksgiving morning this is what we did,, well the boys..
Natalie and Braden holding hands.. they won for the most cheesy entrance... newlyweds...;

Thanks Laney and Deb for the trip.. We had a lot to be thankful for this year espically Tys speedy recovery and strength.. Families we love you and thanks Anglea for taking care of our little girlfriend..
