THANKSGIVING

This year we decided to spend Thanksgiving in Boston with some of our family members. This was quite a feat since we live in OHIO! Packing up 6 people and flying is no simple task! I agreed to bear the brunt of this task since my husband is in the early recouperating stages from a double hernia surgery. He could offer no physical assistance which made the process of moving all our luggage somewhat challenging!! But...I did it...we did it...and had a great time once we arrived at Larry's sister's home. We spend Monday the 24th to Sat. the 30th enjoying an extended visit with family we rearely see. The matriach, Grandma B, joined us and observed all of her adult children, 5 of them, their spouses, children and grandchildren!! We filled this house that is typically a quiet place with joy and laughter. Thank you Jeanne & Tim for allowing us to move in!! The newest family member, Emma, whom we adopted from China in the spring of 07 had a great time getting to know her beloved grandma and other family members. She will have some wonderful memories. :)Here we are cooking away in preperation of the delicious meal
Chowing down and conversation!

This photo should have come first, the table before chowing down all that food!!! I looked so nice.


Emma with one of her favorite cousins!! Ginny she enjoyed your attentions all week!!
