Thanksgiving

We were so pleased to have Dad, Mom, Harold, Eva Jean and Anna show up on Monday and Lois on Thursday.  Holidays with family is always the best!

There were crossword puzzles to work on.

Pool to be played, as well as the pool to swim in - at least according to Dad.  He took a dip and a got some exercise swimming one afternoon.

There was always a Mexican Train game either being played or about to be.

Dinner of course was one of the high points!  Lois was able to be with us Thursday morning to Friday afternoon.

Everyone seemed to enjoy.

There were leftovers...

The menu included turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy, vegetables, sweet potatoes, cranberry chutney, homemade rolls and for dessert: pumpkin cheesecake, pumpkin pie, chocolate/peanut butter pie and Mom's chocolate cake.

Thanksgiving evening we had a very pleasant visit with Dan and Karen and their children Paul and Claire.  Paul was in town for a hockey tournament.

One of the trees was put up on Friday.  Harold and Eva Jean posing Sunday morning before leaving.

The van pulled out Sunday morning about 5:45 heading north and back home to Maryland.
