More random pictures form our trip










Thanksgiving Pictures

Here are some pictures we took in the gym...








Here are the final pictures from our trip. We'll start with Thanksgiving...

Here are the grandkids in Grandpa's truck -- I didn't have a photo with all of them looking up. Did any one get a good one?


Here Joe is showing off the table he and Alli set.


Here is the table all set with the delicious dinner -- oh it was soooo good!


Mom & I put sage leaves under the skin of the turkey before we cooked it -- my dad said it looked like it had some kind of growth under the skin. Men.

Dad is mashing the potatoes so fast the picture is blurry.


A sampling of the desserts and the beautiful plates of Kim's


Lily & Rachel at the "girls table".

Here are the rest of the rug rats getting ready to chow down. As a nice Thanksgiving touch Will and Barry were in Power Ranger mode.

She is so cute!

Kim, Alli & Jen. Alli like to hang out with the "big girls"

Thom, Chris and Dan are so patient when they are hungry.

Dan loves The Hulk -- don't you Dan?

On Friday when good ol' Al stayed home and kept an eye on all the kids her is what the kids were up to...





Why aren't Cole & Dylan in these pictures? X-BOX


Whew -- did you make it to the end? This is the best picture off all.

Thanks mom for having us -- we had such a great time. We love your guts!

FYI

I have been sick and still don't feel to well -- but we made it back from California safe and sound. I just thought I'd pass this link along. It is a perfect thing for Primary lessons, FHE or other Sunday activities with your kids. This is from Dani's blog...

Last but not least, if you are a member of the LDS Church and have a young family, grandchildren, are serving or know someone who is serving in Primary or Nursery... you will be excited that I am finally unveiling my much loved hobby for the last year: Cds with 222 of the best pages from the last 10 years of the FRIEND magazine. You will never have to search for a Family Home Evening lesson, primary talk or coloring page again. These Cds are being distributed with permission from the FRIEND copyrights department. The best part is that I am selling them for cost only (50 cents each) and that includes a case. They would make for great stocking stuffers or neighbor gifts. You can also order black and white copies of 175 of the pages as well. Those are being sold at cost only as well. Cd's $0.50 / Black & White copies of the pages $6.00. Please order at least 2 CDs at one time or I actually loose money on your purchase in paypal fees!

Halloween


Elicia was Supergirl and Dylan was Jengo Fet from star wars.




Trevor was a dalmation puppy. He would crawl around like a puppy and lick us. So he was great at acting the part.

Here are the kids all dressed up and ready to overload on candy!

Alli as Little Red Riding Hood. (She refused to hold a basket)

Lily seriously killed me as a "grandma" this year (no she isn't dressed up like you Grandma Mary :) Her personality is so spunky that she just made the perfect "old lady"

Luckily Cole wanted to be a revolutionary war soldier. Lily is his elderly mother welcoming her son home!
Will REALLY wanted to be a knight.

Barry decided that he would be a dragon to fight Will's knight -- hey they are fighting all the time anyway. Why not?

So here is our cute dragon with paisley scales -- so fashionable!

We had a great Halloween. The kids got a ton of candy -- Alli had a fun time partying with her friends and Cord & I vegged on the couch and caught up on Masterpiece Theater. I hope all of you had a good one too!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAN!!



Dan, Dan, he's our man!

Happy birthday! We love you!
