Thanksgiving 2009

Our Thanksgiving celebration happened in two stages and lasted a whole week. First came the California contingent: Cristi, Andy and the kids. They arrived the Saturday before Thanksgiving and stayed until Wednesday morning. While they were here, Mitchel and his Pandas made good use of our electric train set, then did a very careful job of packing away all the tracks and switches.

The Michigan contingent, Bruce and Marcille, arrived in time to eat Turkey with us on Thursday. The rest of the Nordstog family joined us also. Bethany and our neighbor Eldora completed the group. A good time was had by all and we ate too much but enjoyed every bite.
