So many things to be thankful for

Thanksgiving day we had a wonderful time with family and yep...we ate to much.

Tim cooked his first bird this Thanksgiving.   He got raving reviews.  

Grandma Lou and Carter 

Tim and Uncle Jerry engaging in some very intense conversation. 

You guessed it: Keke got a hold of my camera :-) 

Hugging on my babies

Everyone hanging out in the kitchen. 

We were also able to squeeze in a visit to see Arlin and Tillie.  Tillie was Shelly, John and my babysitter from the time we were tiny babies.  We grew up with her kids and even called Tillie mom.   Still to this day we take any opportunity to get to see them.  All of the kids were in for Thanksgiving so we went over for a little while last Friday.  Arlin and Tillie have 4 kids, Brenda, Barbara, Nancy and Kevin.  While we were there we were able to reminisce about some of our memories, such as the plays they use to put on for us and Kevin auctionerring.  We have so many wonderful memories with this family.
