*Newcomers - Double Click on any photo for a larger view*

We were thankful to have such a wonderful day together.  What a treat to have our niece and nephew, Sharah & Rob Meservy here with us and Grandpa & Grandma Firth.  Our group numbered 10 - and we enjoyed great food and company and much laughter all day & late into the night. Here are a few pics of our day together.  
We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!





Meet Ramses, the little dog who stole everyones heart.  
He belongs to Cousin Rob.  
He is wishing he could steal some of Rob's appetizers!!





Rob, Sharah & Em 




Ooooohhhhh! Jake's scrumptious stuffed mushrooms.





Caramel rolls...Tradition!!  This recipe came from 
Mark & Leisa's first date.  
A friends parents cooked dinner for 
several couples before the dance.  
These were served.



The bird has seen better days!



Craving amazing mashed potatoes??  
No one does them better than Grandpa Ronald!!


Sharah & Ramses



Grandma Marie makin' the perfect gravy!



It sure gets slurped up fast!




Ramses & Emily.
Cute doggie, huh Liam?!!
Grandma sure had fun reading you your bedtime story on the icam!



Lindsey gets into the hula hoop game.



Sharah goes for the record and then below you see her 


brother cheering his heart out for her!!
 



Jake pauses in a moment of Zen as he holds the "tree" position.  
We will tell you that we have never laughed so hard watching 
each other try all the Wii Fitness games.  
It was a kick in the pants!  
Wish we had video to share of everyone...

Sounds like you had a great day. I love all of your cool looking cups and dishes and pitchers.

Why does Camber mix her peas and mashed potatoes? Isn't that kind of gross? :)

The peas and the potatoes are just the way the kids do it. They LOVE it that way! Don't ever try to sneak your peas into Karalee's icecream when she isn't looking or she will give you a scar on your arm.

Looks like a good time was had by all. Yummy looking rolls. Scott's was also a great place to eat good food too.
