We had a really nice Thanksgiving Day with Ryan's parents. Ryan's cousin Jake and his wife Michelle came down with their three girls (Brie, Megan and Rachel) from New Jersey to spend the holiday. Wendy also invited a couple from their ward to join us for dinner. Their two little boys helped liven the party.
Dinner, of course, was delish. Though the curse of the "Holidays from Heck" tried to rear its ugly head, the collateral damage was limited to a broken kitchen spigot and a particularly off-tasting Williams Sonoma gravy (not recommended).
The turkey wasn't the only thing broiling, since we had temperatures in the mid-70's until after dinner. Then a big storm front rolled in with gusty winds that cooled things off considerably. The kids had fun outside trying to catch leaves that were falling from the sky like snow. Rachel was tickled to be caught up in a "leaf tornado."In all, we have lots to be thankful for this year.
We're counting our blessings.

Dude! Are you guys eating off GOLDEN PLATES?! Ritzy! We missed you but we're glad you had a good time...as for the gravy, the Wilsons didn't even bother to MAKE any! What the?
I'm so glad you're home. Tess is getting bigger by the day. When you post a video we'll be able to speed it up and document the growth.
Papa
