Thanksgiving 2013

Since my mother was in town for Thanksgiving, we decided we would host a small gathering this year.  Both of my daughters, my son-in-law, and two of my grandkids joined us.  Here are some images from our very happy day.

 Amelia, Rachel, John, and Mom

 John and Aunt Emily

 Great-Grandma with John

 Sisters Rachel and Emily

 John playing Yahtzee

 Grandma Marilyn, Rachel, Debbie, Emily

 Me and Mom

 The table set with my grandmother's tablecloth, my mother's Thanksgiving napkins that I made for her years ago, and the paper table favors Mom and I made the night before.

 Amelia attempting to devour her Dad's ankle!

 And me apparently attempting to devour the turkey all by myself!

 Rachel and John playing cards

 9-Hole Golf with Rachel, Emily, and Darrel

 John calling Grandma

 "Dad, it's for you!"

 Amelia entertained herself for much of the afternoon by playing a spelling game on her dad's phone.

 John is big enough to ride the riding toys all by himself.

 We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing!

 The place settings . . . 

 Olive fingers!

Angry pilgrim!

 Grandpa Darrel and Amelia play a high-low card game.

 In 9-Hole Golf, every able bodied shuffler must be on deck.  Get it?  On deck?

 Happy Thanksgiving--yes, it was!

Apparently someone was a bad girl!
