Thanksgiving in Indiana

Since we last updated, Annah is doing much better.  My cold turned into bronchitis, and then I had an allergic reaction to the antibiotics I was taking to get rid of the bronchitis.  I'mstill reacting, even after a shot in the hip and 4 days solid of Benadryl, Claritin and Prednisone.  The cough is still hanging on too.  Probably the worst part of it is that I'm now allergic to every family of antibiotics.  Now Jeremy is trying hard not to come down with  the sickness.
      
Anyway, we traveled home to Indiana  Wednesday night.  The Crabill family's Thanksgiving dinner was amazing as always, and with 54 people, the 3 tons of food was gone in about 15 minutes!  Eric and Marti graciously hosted the Lopshire's and the Frisch's for a wonderful afternoon dinner.  Cousin Wilson showed Annah how to play race cars.
      
Friday afternoon Annah successfully had her pictures taken at the studio.  We had a couple family shots done too.  Hopefully they'll turn out well and you may see them in a Christmas greeting.  After pictures, we went to Fred Toenges Shoes and Annah had her feet measured for the first time!  Grandma Vonda bought Annah her first pair of pre-walkers and a pair of pretty black patent leather size fours!  :)  Then we visited Uncle Travis and Aunt Erin's new apartment.  It's really nice!
      
Saturday we visited with Grandpa and Grandma Lopshire all day.  Annah loves their bright orange parakeets!  We stopped at Great Grandma DeHaven's for a few minutes on our way back to the McEowen supper.  Annah had fun playing with cousin Aidan on Friday night and Saturday.   Aidan is great at walking--even wearing his daddy's shoes, but Annah still prefers talking.  Over the weekend she learned to say, "radio," "water," and her favorite thing in the world right now is a "cracker!!!!"
