Thanksgiving with the Thomases

We made the trek to Omaha this year for Thanksgiving.  We wanted to spend some time with our friends, the Thomases and we had a terrific visit.  In addition to a lovely Thanksgiving dinner, we were able to visit our some of our favorite Omaha joints- namely The Pizza Machine, Culvers, Ted and Wallys, the temple and visitor center with Gingerbread display and the slides downtown.  We also had some fun playing football and lots of games at their house and Laurie and I even got to do our beloved black friday shop together.  Oh and Brayden and Kevin toured a college in Lincoln (Wesleyan) which had invited Brayden after seeing him wrestle at a tournament earlier this year.  That was pretty cool.  The only bad part was getting stuck in a snowstorm on the way home.  That was terrible.  We had to pull over into a gas station for three hours since we had zero visibility and the roads were made of ice.  But we made it and it was a great trip. 
This was from our hotel stop on the drive there.  Braydens Winnie the Pooh onesie was quite a hit there and I thought I ought to preserve that memory ;)
