Thanksgiving was held at C & R's this year. Seth & his girlfriend Nichole drove up for the day, and so did we. Christy provided a delicious brined turkey...YUM! Seth made his hitmaking mashed potatos and I made 5 pies--- 1 apple, 2 pumpkin and 2 slighly burned chocolate (luckily, everyone had a good sense of humor about the burned chocolate. Aaron even said, "it was pretty good, if you put enough whipped cream on it!) WE all had a lot of fun together. Lots of wrestling went on. The kids were hysterical. Funny quotes of the day are: Aaron "I'm invisible" (because he wore camouflage in honor of Uncle John), Alton: " Easy peasy, lemon squeezy" (while he ran up the stairs to make a 'scorpion'), Kara "You broke my heart" (when Sarah had the audacity to not be upstairs playing with her. There is such joy in simply being together. Christy, Seth and I played a few rounds of Family Seek, just to brush up on our family history (hopefully we didn't scare Nichole). It was a good day (loooong drive, but good day!)

Uncle John attempts to text "happy thanksgiving" while being tackled, constantly! |

Alton's living for his art right now. He decided his art belonged on his and Peek's faces! |
