Thanksgiving Day

Our Thanksgiving included family and good food. We made gingerbread houses after we cleaned up the dishes. It was really fun seeing all the different creations! The younger kids were not as worried about being meticulous and their houses turned out beautiful with candy everywhere. They are really more creative because they are not as inhibited and self-councious! Jill and Netzer brought their new baby, Ellie. Uncle Gary and Aunt Karen were the proud grandparents. Gayle and Brad worked their fingers to the bone cleaning up, as usual. We had one change in the menu this year-green beans with garlic and parsley instead of gooey green bean casserole. It was refreshing. The pies were great and we ate ourselves sick...
