Thanky Thanky Thanksgiving...

Thanksgiving went off with a bang...without a hitch...a good time had by all...oh you get the picture. It was swell. We celebrated again this year with Mat and Laura, Ava and Jack. Fun Fun!

Posin' by the "Countdown to Christmas" (formally known as an Advent Calendar) that the girls helped make...
Takin' a break before the feasting...

Jason and his grilled to perfection bird. Yeah, you read that right...grilled, like on a BBQ. He is officially in charge of the turkey from here on out...

Would you like one lump or two with your mashed potatoes?

At this point the kids were one step away from pounding their forks on the table and chanting..."we want food, we want food"...

Apparently meat cutting is more captivating than TV. Who knew?

Annika was sooo looking forward to eating a turkey leg. When I told her turkey legs were pretty big, she responded, "That's OK. I'm an eater!"

The following day before the Martinsons hit the road we did a quick stroll on the beach. It was chilly...

Yet pretty...

Good friends are hard to come by and we are so glad they came by...

Thanks for another fun time Martinsons. We look forward to our next adventure with you. Speaking of adventure...we head to Seattle today because tomorrow I am going to run, er, jog, er, shuffle the Seattle 1/2 marathon. I made myself a t-shirt and I'm wearing a running skirt. At least I'll look fancy as I flail across the finish line!!!
