A Day of Thanks

The daybefore Thanksgiving found me happily baking in my kitchen. There were pies to be made; pumpkin, pecan and apple. I have sort of been out of practice so this was fun getting into the groove again. The next day it was orange rolls. All of it turned out well.

David, Chris and I went to John and Alison's for Thanksgiving this year. Lindsay went to her boyfriend's family and Brett and Claudia et al went to Moni's. This left an opening for Alison to have us at her house along with her father and William. There were eight of us at the table. Abby set the table and made place cards for us all then selected the seating arrangements. The food was fabulous. They did a great job. After dinner we cleaned up the kitchen and left for a movie. What fun. We arrived at home about an hour before Brett and family and Lindsay and her Chris came for a visit. We love it when they descend upon us. Lindsay and Chris took Analisa and Kathering to Chris' for a Rock Band party and the rest of us watched the Polar Express. What a lovely story. Here are some pics of our happy day.

Abby looked so adorable and you can see the love she has for Uncle Chris. Her toothy smile is the best!
