Visiting John


We are lucky to have Daniel's brother's family also living in Portland. That way we can also visit his family! For Christmas John got a guitar. He was showing Olivia how to play it. We had a nice time. I spoke with Mercedes and Claribel (in Spanish) while John and Daniel talked. The kids colored and watched a movie.

Thanksgiving day

Thanksgiving day started as it should, with a Turkey Bowl. Daniel lives for this part of Thanksgiving, it is just as good as homemade pumpkin pie and whip cream.

Drew, Seth and Daniel had a great time playing in the foggy weather on the wet field. Daniel played quarterback some of the time and caught a few touchdown passes. I did not get the low down on Drew and Seth, but Daniel says they are great players.

After the game and a warm shower for the boys, we hung out at the house. Mike made a wonderful meal and 2 turkeys. We had a great time doing nothing.

Val and Mom made sure the snack plates were always full. We had 2 kinds of turkey, green beans, grilled onions with apples, yams with brown sugar and pecans(to die for and requested by Seth), stuffing, cranberry sauce with pomagranate, mashed potatoes, and I am sure there was more...Barbie help!

This is what was left of the fried turkey after Grandpa Mike stood in the rain and cold weather to watched it fry. It was really good.
