It was kind of cloudy and cool but still nice enough for the kids to be outside most of the time (thank goodness! There were 19 of them, I think!) but cool enough that my dad could have the wood stove fired up and nobody passed out from the heat in the livingroom.
The morning was quiet - we had a volunteer to do dishes
meanwhile, I made the sugar pie (see recipe/results in the previous post)
people started arriving in the afternoon, the ladies kept busy in the kitchen
the kids played outside most of the day - this is 'flag tag'
when they all came in, the living room got pretty crowded
and the other half:
Shoes!
(***my mom reads this blog, so if you think the carpet is ugly, PLEASE don't hesitate to comment on it)
Its not Thanksgiving without a kids' table - in this case we moved them all next door.
That's about it! We had a great supper and a good visit with everyone. We look forward to seeing some/all/most of the family again sometime around Christmas.

Sorry, Cheri's mom, but that carpet is less than beautiful. But you should really just tell Cheri that living with carpet like that gives you strength of character. ;)
I *love* your lake pictures/stories. And sorry, I kind of like the funky carpet - why is it all covered up with that rug?
Looks like a "full house". Nice to see everyone got together and the kids got to play outside. That's the way to enjoy Fall. It makes Thanksgiving feel so special.
How great-- a big family Thanksgiving. I will keep myself out of trouble by withholding my carpet opinions. :)
Cheri, do you know anyone who uses Corel Photoshop Pro XI?? That wouldn't mind sharing a copy?
Thanx,
Do you mean Paint shop pro? No, I don't know anyone who has it or uses it right now - most people I know are using Photoshop which is made by Adobe. Lots of people use paint shop pro for digiscrapping - but I just don't know any of them. :)
