Thanksgiving Part 2



Paris and Uncle Mike in front of the fire, which I've specifically mentioned because this year is the first time we have used our fireplace since we moved in almost 8 years ago.
Big time buddies
The cousins were very excited to be reunited!

Paris, Mason, Alex and Mike up in a redwood tree off the trail behind our house.

Mason was helping Omi out in the kitchen.

Aunt Annie braided Paris' hair (you'll see the curly outcome in the upcoming photos) right before teaching her how to make a pumpkin pie!

The little men (Soren and Mason) fit some much needed reading in on Thanksgiving.

Anne had the brilliant idea to move our kitchen table in next to the dining table so we could all eat together.

Jeff taking a break from carving the turkey.

An aerial view of Roman, Anne, Soren and Paris playing Whack-a-Mole-

Happy to see their big brother, Roman.

Your Thanksgiving looks really festive...I can't believe its the first time you have used the fireplace...you must have been loving that. Fun to see Jeff....I didn't know he was there.
I'm going to go look at all the pics again

Gosh, the kids are changing so fast - Mason looks different now (and the reading picture is too much). Looks like a lovely family gathering..
