This past weekend we went up to Shelby for the annual Thanksgiving/Christmas Eat-a-thon. It is always lots of fun! And there is always so much food! To try to give you an idea of how much food, let me just say that Damian is on the small side for an Omness man. He also eats less than the average Omness man. It takes a lot of food to fill up everyone! Damian's aunt had cooked 31 pounds of beef. 31 lbs! Which is about what Isabel weighs! Crazy!
Anyway, we went up early so we could check into our hotel, and then we took Isabel swiming in the pool for a few minutes. The party started at 6pm, and it was pretty much nonstop eating until 10pm. I tried to limit myself, and I think I did an okay job.
After the party, we dropped Isabel and Damian's mom off at Damian's Aunt Robin's house for a sleepover (Isabel adores Aunt Robin) and Damian and I headed back to the hotel and promptly feel asleep. We were all fighting colds, and were exhuasted! Sunday morning, we headed back down to Grand Rapids, still very full from the night before!
And, of course, I left the camera in the car, so no pictures. Oh well.

That sounds like a blast, and a whole lot of food. You'll have to remembre the camera next time so we can all see the spread.
