What a week! Last Saturday, Hana and I flew to MN to see Aunt Gayle, Uncle John, Cousin's Michael and Jennifer and her husband Nick and new son Jackson. We had a great time on Sunday and ate a great turkey and meal!
Monday Gayle & John drove me to WI to meet up with Knute (who was hunting in Nelson, WI). Tuesday the 3 of us left for MI. Wednesday, we met up with family and friends! First, Aunt Ann and Uncle Don's house, then to Yesterdog where we saw Liz, Renee, Connie and her 2 girls. After that, we say aunt Nancy and uncle Don and cousin Emilie (plus her two kids!) Then off to Karen's house (with her husband, 2 kids and parents) and Liz also stopped by again with her daughter Alexandra. After that, it was back to the Woods house (where we were staying) and the Davis' and (most of) the Ouendag's came by for pizza and cake (for my birthday, which was actually Thursday.)
Thanksgiving day, we were off to Kalamazoo for Thanksgiving dinner with Mom (grandma!) and Adrian. After that we drove (and drove!) straight home to Denver, where we arrived at 6 am. Like I said, it was a whirlwind! Fun for all, but we three Nelson's are quite tired! Here are a few of the 250+ pictures I took!
