Some random photos from Thanksgiving 2008

Katie and Tom

I stole this picture of my daughter Katelyn and her ...umm.. HUSBAND, Tom. Are they not a happy looking couple?? California seems SO far away sometimes. :(

Congratulations you guys! I'm SO happy for you!

Fun Family Time :=)

Why do young people find our attempts at mastering VERY challenging video games amusing? Marissa?

Nana's visit with Hazel!

Could you kick this guy out of your bed?

I took this with my phone camera. I was trying to explain to Ollie that he needed to sleep in his own bed last night. He just kept looking at me with his sad eyes. Guess where he slept?

Sweet Baby Hazel~ 5 weeks!

I can't be entirely sure, but what I think Hazel is saying is..."I want to see Grandmama every day or I am going to punch somebody's lights out."

" Do you understand?"

Clydesdales at Anheuser-Busch Stables

It was bath day for all eight Clydesdales that were not out on tour. These beautiful animals are incredibly well taken care of. They are painstakingly washed/shampooed once a week with warm water and conditioner on the manes and tails. Each horse takes almost an hour or so to complete.

The stables are so pristine that you cannot detect ANY odor at all. The wood on each stall is highly polished and beautiful.

Singing Beach and Stage Fort Park

There is nothing like swimming in November!
