Thanksgiving

We made the annual trip back east for Thanksgiving like always, again to my cousins' house in Columbus, OH.  Here's Evan the day of in his as-close-to-formal-wear-as-he-gets (which is not that close) outfit:


The weather was nicer this year than last, but we still didn't make it outside.  We again spent a disproportionate amount of our time playing Wii games, this year mostly Guitar Hero.  I was able to beat the devil in the final duel, though, so it wasn't entirely wasted time. ;-)  Anyway, here are Evan and Steph investigating the assortment of baby toys available while others are rocking out to the game:


Evan had an especially good time playing with this tricycle thingy (you can here the serenade of the video game in background):


In addition to playing with his cousin Lauren's foreign toys Evan was also fascinated by my cousin Josh's huge aquarium, which will make his uncle Brian (a pescaphyle) very happy:


Sticking with Metz family tradition the kids put on a play for the adults one night.  This year the play was based on Spider Man (a couple of the little cousins are pretty much obsessed with Spider Man), and Evan was cast as Baby Spider Man:


Also sticking with Metz family tradition Evan opted out of actually performing, preferring to stay off stage right where he could play with his legos.
