Thanksgiving 2012



I know, I'm slow with the blogging. But we've been busy! We had a house full of people for Thanksgiving. Alex and Jeff enjoyed the appetizers. Jenny enjoyed the turkey that "accidentally" fell off the counter by my dad...

 
Laura and Kelly made sure their places were set.

 
Dad once again made a perfect turkey.
 
 
We enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving together. My parents and brother were here for the holiday, and Gary, Paula and the girls were able to join us too. It was a fabulous time!

 
Eric had gone to Boston to spend time with Kelsey at Greg & Dianes. They still made an appearance via Skype.

 
After dinner, Mom and Kelly enjoyed watching some Tom & Jerry.


We all searched the classifieds to figure out what we "needed" during Black Friday. Turns out we needed nothing, so we all slept in instead.


 
Earlier in the day, we did the Turkey Trot in Baldwinsville.


Here are Dad & Jeff, ready to run! Dad came in first for his age group and finished in 43 minutes. I stayed right with him the whole way.

 
And Alex had a great showing. 13th out of almost 2,000 runners.



 
This was our view from the starting line. When the gun went off, which we actually never even heard, it took almost 4 minutes to even get to the starting line.
 

On Friday, we all went out and bought new running shoes. These were mine. Aren't they fun? They're the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. Now I need to use them for what they are intended...
