Turkey with stuffing and cranberries...

We've been having internet troubles lately - so are a bit behind on blogging.  These are a few shots from Thanksgiving...

'The spread' - generously provided by Randy's mom!  She is a fabulous cook.  My only contributions were pies and an oven to cook a turkey in that had already been prepared, 'Cherie-style':)  It was great...

Shinara Lucy - Joel's 4 year old.  If you need a little extra personality, she might share some of hers with you:)

The whole gang - 2007.  We borrowed the church for the day so that the kids would have plenty of room to run around in...and they did.  I think we still had to drag them away after 4 hours of playing and eating.  They loved it.

Brayden - the Turkey King.  I love a boy who can handle a good drumstick:)!  He was all smiles about this one.

His sister Brielle.  She is the cutest - every time I took a picture of her she started laughing, so this was about 3 or 4 pictures into our little mock photo shoot...

Jenn (Brielle and Brayden's mom - and Ronny's wife).  She was amazingly happy for having traveled all the way from Idaho to eat with us (7 months pregnant and with 3 kids).  That deserves an award in my book.

We hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.  We found that as we took the time to reflect on what we were thankful for - that we were overwhelmed with the number of blessings in our lives.  We pray the same is true for you.
