Thanksgiving 2013

We had a really nice Thanksgiving this year!

The first nice thing: all I had to do was make this pie:


It was a cinch!  Took me probably 15 minutes.

The next nice thing was that we got to Skype with Michael's family in Maryland.  We saw and spoke to Chris, Camille, Nile, Rebekah, Ian, Abby, Liam, and baby Jared.  It was great, everyone stuck to a strict dress code of pajamas and not combing our hair (well, okay, maybe that was just our house).



Our crazy family!
The next great thing was Thanksgiving dinner!  We went to Michael's aunt Sherren's house, only a half hour drive from us.  There was so much food, and everything was delicious, of course!

Colin tried a few things but his favorite was the roll.

I should have taken some more pictures because we had so many family members there! What was I thinking? I guess I was distracted by this:

Pie Smorgasbord.

On the way home we stopped at Jacque's house for "games and dessert" but really it was just everyone sitting around talking about how full we were.




Ella showed Jane her new stamps

Ian wanted in on the stamp action

Look at these beautiful girls!

There's Ian again!

We were pooped at the end but it was a great Thanksgiving. :)

GREAT PHOTOS! Looks like all you had to eat on Thanks Giving were desserts. The kids look terrific, so does Michael.
