Giving Thanks for Friends

Not only were we able to spend time with each part of our family over the holidays, but we also had the chance to hang with friends throughout the week.

Todd already gave a shout out to the Wrens for their Annual Turkey Tango-but here are some fun pics from the evening. The food, fun, and games were a great way to kick off the Thanksgiving Marathon.
To finish up the Thanksgiving Marathon on Friday, a bunch of us met up for a little dinner party in honor of Sean and Carter-in from California. The newlyweds filled us in on more details of their recent wedding in Maui, and of course-we prodded them for upcoming details on our favorite show GREEK. They didn't give anything away, but it was fun to feel "in the know".




On a sidenote, some of us were talked into some kind of fancy shmancy margarita-Chile's style. I don't remember the name of it, but I suggest sticking with El Presidente and it's shaker in the future-Just FYI.


Bgirl and her family were also in from Oklahoma, so the reunion was a double bonus. I had a bit of a flashback looking around the table at so many high school friends-all grown up. We're a pretty lucky group to still be so much in touch after all these years.
After dinner, we headed to our house for an after party. We reminisced a few stories from ol' DHS Class of 1993, cracked open a few bottles of wine, and let the good times roll. Gobble Gobble!

Carter sort of looks like a hand model in that picture.

Really good times, tho!

Sounds fun! Looks like you had lots o activities for Thanksgiving. We are going to have to schedule a trip soon. Maybe now that we don't have to take a loan out to pay for gas we can make it up there. Of course you are always welcome here too!
