Thankgiving Tour-de-Kansas, Cooper Style


The Topeka Coopers performed their traditional Thanksgiving holiday Tour-de-Kansas. Thursday, we enjoyed a traditional (you should expect nothing else!!) dining experience at Sharla's sister's house. Wilcox's, Summers, Coopers and even a spare Wegeng presided over a dandy meal. As always, there's nothing quite like a nap following a feast.


We stayed the evening in Hutchinson at the in-laws. And it was on to Hoxie on Friday. Sharla, Keesha and I stopped in Hays to pick up some Bar-B-Qutie to take to mom and dad. I think it's fair to say that mom really enjoyed the ribs. Pappy enjoyed all but the highlight to him was the Burbon Brownies. He even passed along a little advice: "Remember Keesha, if given a choice between a corner or a middle, always take the corner!"




Afterwards, those three wild women forced me to make them a batch of hot chocolate with Butter Shots schnopps.

Tellie


Sharla and I were entrusted with grand-dog sitting while Kaela and Stephen took in the KU/Louisiana Monrow BB game. Tellie was feeling pretty rambunctious and it was swell to let them take her home afterwards. :)

As you can see, Tellie is just a big polar bear of a pup...

Day 1

No this isn't much, but it is a beginning.
