| ... so we are Blessed and Thankful for many things ALL year! This year our Thanksgiving food festival started on Friday nite November 16th with a Mexican food feast with Stef and Rich. Then on to the 1st Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday, November 18th (with Bryan home from SLC and Rog and Bruce and Shell and Kathy and 'Nanny' Michelle and Kev and Dick and Tom). Sue and Steve came out from Ohio for the actual Thanksgiving Day feast on November 22nd ... |
 |
| ... Joe is in college now and wanted to spend some time with 'a friend' over Thanksgiving break. He stayed back in OH and took care of the pups ... Madison and Lola. Stefanie worked a double (helping to keep us safe) on the actual T-day, Rich stopped in with his parents. It was great to Richard and Marilyn. Bry had already headed back to SLC to orchestrate his own Thanksgiving dinner with friends (and get back to his new job). Linda came up from Saybrook with Callie and her pup sitting charge - Zoe. Kev made the gravy! |

| BEST TIME! Thank YOU so much to everyone who attended, and missed those who could not be there! PIZZA PONI was awesome - so YUMMY! Wished it lasted for 3 more days! I forgot to serve coffee, I still have things to say ... loved Kevin & Bryan's closing day speeches! Thanks to all who made this day possible (chefs, entrepreneurs, friends, family, kitchen witches, workers, partiers, entertainers, and pet sitters too!) … it was WAY FUN! ♥ |
