We had a great Thanksgiving with two turkeys, tons of food, and a houseful of people. This included Grandma Dot, Grandma Bev, Uncle Jack and Aunt Shirl, George and Anne Kordwig (neighbors down the street), Uschi and Louis and their two children, Beatrice and Pedro, Franklin and Joy Lobb, and their two children, Gabriella and Graceson (the youngest attending at only 6 months), also the Ostlings and Wade. Coming to a total of 30! Things went very smoothly for that many people!
The mix of folks was unique...George was born in Germany and Uschi and Louis are from Brazil, but most recently from Germany . The other interesting find was that Anne and Uncle Jack were born in relatively close proximity in Scotland, but ten years apart!
We are thankful for our friends and family and really enjoyed hosting this year.
Just to remind Jack...that at the end of the evening we did play the board game Therapy with Uschi, Louis, Kyna, and Shannon.
And just to remind Gail...Jack would have won if she hadn't given Uschi the peg reward for successful group therapy instead of him! Maybe next time he will not suggest that she is what she eats.
Here is a turkey that Emma (8) drew this year, using her hand of course for a template:
