Thanksging 2009

Thanksgiving Eve was a day that was filled with amazing joy and thanksgiving. We held our first service in our new church building. It was a great time of worship, celebration, visiting and delicious amazing desserts. And-- the parking lot was filled! There are lots of glitches and still quite a bit of moving in to do... but it is so great to be there!

Due to lighting constraints and being completely distracted I did not get very many pictures of the event. But here our a few to give you a flavor of the look, color and feel.

The amazing desserts I told you about!

Thanksgiving day we spent the day with Rory's mom and step-dad and Grandparents. We had a delicious meal and enjoyed a day of relaxing and visiting. In the top picture we have our Turkey Vision at Rory's parent's house. Here is Grandma Bear with her girls.

Thanksgiving 2008

We enjoyed a lovely Turkey Day with Rory's side of the family. The food was wonderful, and the company was a joy. It was a very relaxing day. It was perfect since I was still not fully recovered from my surgery. We sat next to the fire, sipped hot tea and cider and watched Miracle on 34th street. We also enjoyed the parade on Grandpa Cliff's GIANT TV. Thanks to Grandpa Cliff and Grandma Bear for making the day so special. Here is our big girl eating up at the table with everyone! She thought that her new booster that Grandma and Grandpa got her was pretty neat. Rosemary had a fine time being held and oogled over.


Rory's grandparents joined us for dinner. We had a fun time catching up and they seemed to enjoy seeing the girls.

Grandma Bear made Cecily and I matching aprons and Rosemary a matching bib (this is one baby that definitely needs a bib at all times!) They turned out very cute! Thanks Grandma Bear!

Here is a sweet shot of Rosemary.
