Thanksgiving 11/27/08 Dick made the dinner - As usual, nothing fancy but lots of laughs. We have much to be thankful for - We missed you Jody.

Kath, queen of the clan (and bottled Diet Cokes)... Harper & Julie with their Gilpin smiles... Beautiful mother & daughter... Enjoying the food & company... Ahhh, Randy loves forced family fun.... Gotta save room for the 2nd big meal of the day... If he had just made a 2nd turkey.... Papa's sugartimer and Jack's best friend (and foe)... Young man on the move... A rare moment of inactivity... Jack gathering his "stuff"... Now Lauren, remember these are mine... You can hold them, but don't play them... Lauren!!! Mom!!!! Lauren, now give'em back... I hope she didn't hurt it... Jody, I had a glass for you...And I'm a white wine drinker... Now don't put your tongue on it... I didn't go with the crystal salt & pepper shakers this year... Papa, you like that Cold Duck, don't you? Another rare moment - quiet time - best friends again... Enjoying the meal... Ummm good... Mom, do I have to finish my cheese corn?? Laughs were plentiful... Dad, think you made enough fruit salad? All boy... Papa's young man... Miss you Dad...give'em heck...I mean patch'em up... Miss you Jody...
