Thanksgiving Day!! I love this day. We reserve the old Venersborg school house and invite everyone!! Both sides of the family come who are around and we all bring lots of food. This year there were about 35 of us. We had way more food than we could eat but it is always fun to try! (Do to a technical glitch there are no pictures of the wonderful spread. Something happened from camera to computer!) But the most important part of the day are the people. So without further ado.....here we are!
Ya gotta love a picture of Charlie, Ike's little boy. He is so cute. Don't you just want to squeeze those little cheeks?
The school is heated by this big old wood stove. It is a favorite gathering place on a cold day like today.
Grandma and Hannah laughing in the kitchen. Grandma is keeping a close watch over her sugar rolls baking in the oven.
Here's a group enjoying their dinner!! Chuck and his family and Deb and her family.
Jeff and Dale enjoying their dinner. (We think that might be a secret celebrity sighting of Michael Douglas.)
Stina and her dad Dale waiting in line for food. Shirley is in the background checking out the pies!! We had 8 in all and all delicious.
Barbara and Carol relaxing and visiting as they wait for the line to die down!
Ruthanne and Deb posing so as not to have some random shot show up!
Peggy with Robbie (her son) and his fiance Sidney. (They are not zombies, forgot to put on the red eye outer on the camera!)
These are starving kids waiting for the food to get there and the meal to begin!
Patiently waiting for their turn in line.
Ike and his girls dishing up the goods. This is the start of our hats that came to dinner segment with Ike's hat.
Kurt (I do not know how I missed getting a picture of Courtney. This picture of Kurt will have to serve as proof that she was there and before the meal was over and everyone was gone!!) with his ball cap. Luke just looks like he was wearing a hat with that hat hair!
Orey and his hat. He was as usual a wiz with the knife in the kitchen carving turkeys and ham.
Grandpa with his hat. He found it in the garage and no one has claimed it so he is wearing it!
And this is Rob in the same hat!! I love this day and getting together with family and friends (our neighbors the Freemans came but were in the lost photos!). This is a great time of year and now we are ready to head head long into the holiday season. Ready or not! Millie
Portland!
