Happy Holidays, Indeed!

This is old news, and you've already seen these pictures --I'm actually just practicing since I haven't posted for so long. Here we are at the end of our combined holiday weekend -- this picture was taken after Eric had already left, unfortunately, and just before Dave and Angela headed out. It was hard to smile after that......


Too many chefs most definitely didn't spoil anything -- everyone had something to contribute!

Lovely, pampered day -- my first pedicure! As you can see, one of us opted for a manicure instead. Can you identify which foot and hand belongs to who?



Sisters, sisters, never were there such devoted sisters......




What do you call this game again? We played this beanbag toss with a clown face cut out of plywood when I was a kid.



Mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, nieces, and best friends. Love these girls!





Ryan and the bean bags --






Tara's Christmas gifts made her sing with joy!




Go Team Edward!








Loving aunt, darling niece (thirsty, too).







It was right where I left it!










Music to my ears!








Singing around the piano -- the next generation.









Thanksgiving dinner, served up in style.






Beautiful -- and tasty, too!


























The hungry crowd.















Everybody helped in the kitchen
















And Tara set a beautiful table. Loved the vintage plates from Goodwill!




















Heather and the apple crisp we can't do without.

















Joseph, master of Cajun fried turkey!















Eric, master of just about everything -- this is our Thanksgiving Day brunch, just the beginning.....








Very late posting, but had to share our pics from Thanksgiving in Ohio -- wonderful food, wonderful hosts, wonderful family time together.

That was so fun. Logan makes me laugh in the "right where I left it picture" He is too busy in the computer for games =) I also love the pic of Addie drinking from the spray bottle. What a doll! I could comment about every picture but that would make a very long comment.
Keep the posts coming! We'd love to see pictures of you guys in WA!

The game is called "Corn hole" and it's much more sophisticated than your clown-face game. I'm a little hurt that you would even compare the two. Gosh.
