We had a different, but great Thanksgiving this year. We didn't have any family come up and weren't able to go anywhere so our friends, Amber and Charles Colaw invited us to Charles' parent's house for dinner. They both live only a few houses down from us. There were lots of people there - there are a lot of Colaws in this town! We had such a great time. The kids played outside almost the entire time, even though it was freezing. There was so much good food - I can't explain how fat I feel right now! We are lounging around the house right now like beached whales.
I have to tell you about Charles' grandparents (paternal). They have been married for 70 years, but from the way they look at eachother and treat eachother you would think they are newlyweds. They were so sweet! I took a couple pictures of them to remind me of how I hope Luke and I will be after 70 years of marriage.
Olivia and I had so much fun cooking for the "feast". She is getting to be quite the cook. Of course, Ryder had to be right in the middle of us - trying to taste test everything and let Blaze test taste too. I can't tell you how many times we said "Ryder - no!". What a mess he is.
Everyone is anxiously awaiting the food - but first we go around the room and say one thing we are thankful for. Me - family and friends. The oddest one - a monkey named Tim.... interesting! That was from Trey - 11. Check out Luke (orange shirt) - digging in Ryder's drawers for poo. Lovely.
Lot of people and lots of food.

I love Ryder's haircut - he's no longer a baby, but a darling little boy!
Love, Mimi
