We had a great Thanksgiving with our friends the Claytons, Griffitts and the Coburns. I think of Thanksgiving last year, and we had a great time in NYC with the Newells, Coombs, and the Coxes and had a fabulous meal at the Marriott Hotel. The only downfall was that it POURED rain all day Thanksgiving, which makes for a miserable day with 3 wet kids! So, with our luck, the weather this year was FABULOUS! Upper 60's. As we sat down to dinner, the black clouds came over and the rain began. Crazy Pennsylvania weather I say. After Thanksgiving we pulled out the Christmas --the kids were so excited, they kept asking me all day, "when are we going to get the decorations out?" On Saturday night, we went to our outdoor mall, and awaited the christmas tree light up, and the arrival of Santa Claus. It made for an exciting holiday weekend, and now it's Tuesday, and back to reality I guess. But...this will be the 1st year that we are going home for Christmas in 5 years. SO on the 15th of Dec. we will be in sunny California!
Thanks guys for making Thanksgiving so much fun and very memorable! BTW--OWen makes a killer turkey--so if you ever want a recipe for a gourmet turkey, we'll send the recipe your way!

FUN! You should post your turkey recipe on your blog, I'd love to have it!
All I heard after thanksgiving was how good your turkey was and that it ruined people's chance of ever liking normal turkey again! :) Thats awesome!
I thought of our Thanksgiving last year too. Very wet, but I did have a good time. Keith was just grateful he wasn't at Toy's 'R Us in New York the day after this year and I longed for it! Great pictures. Darling family!
Wait a minute, since when is California "home"?!
You had me kind of excited for a second. I thought I might actually see you for the first time in, what, 10 years?
But I can't say I blame you for wanting to go to CA. I made a trip there last January and it sure helps to cure the winter blues.
I agree with Lynnette about posting the Turkey recipe! Or email it to me or whatever, but I want it! Sounds delicious.
I'm glad you had a great Thanksgiving! Good luck traveling to CA this year. Do you have many stops? I used to love flying until I had so many kids and had to fly so far. I think the Lord likes me to fly, though, because I pray A LOT whenever I fly. Lol
That's so awesome that you got to get together with some our the Philly clan. I guess that's a big benefit to only living an hour away from there.
Now you say Owen made a killer turkey. I was looking for something good to do with my turkey this year. It sounds like a fun weekend. Can you tell me how you put other people's blog sites onto your blog? Miss you guys, but you will have a fun time in CA this Christmas.
Lots of fun pictures! Thanksgiving looked fun...I want the turkey recipe too! I can't believe it's already Xmas, November went so fast. Have fun in California! I'm glad you finally get to go home.
