Thanksgiving 2007...

Ok...all I have to say about my Thanksgiving Dinner this year....is a phrase I'll borrow from Rachel Ray..."YUMM-O!!!" And, the kicker is, I cooked it all by myself...ok, not really...but, almost! :) As you can see from the pictures I had another set of hands to help...Brooke!! We call her Aunt Brooke..but, she's not really, but she is family, but not really....to explain a little better...Her brother(Chris) is married to my sister(Sarah)...plus, we've been friends since high school...before said sister and brother were married!! Although, we had several conversations over Thanksgiving remembering when we were not so good friends..and then best friends...and then not friends..and then, etc, etc, etc, etc.....It was hilarious and very fun!! Anyways... Continuing on....Josh was in heaven having someone to give him a ton of attention!! Eric was on call the night before Thanksgiving...so, that left Brooke, Josh, and I to get everything ready Thursday morning!! Eric got home around one and was greeted with a cooked, ready to eat, Thanksgiving masterpiece(maybe not, but it feels that way after you do it all for the first time)! :) We did have alot of fun with Brooke. I don't think we did much but, eat, hang out, watch football(Go Buffs), and play with Josh. I did sign Brooke up to take some pictures for us. We went on base and found a pile of yellow leaves! It was sad to see Brooke go, but for our first Thanksgiving away from our 'true' families...it was definitely a Success!!

  3. Thought I'd leave you a message on your blog to answer your question :) I got the Canon IXUS 75, 7.1 MP. I had a Canon before that was great... until Olivia pulled it onto the floor and the "door" that held the memory card in place broke! So I went with the same brand... could have done 8 MP but (according to photography sources close to me... hee hee) there isn't much difference in clarity after 7 MP unless you're going to be blowing up lots of pictures for professional reasons. Hope that helps! And loved seeing how much Josh has grown (and how long your hair is!) since I last saw you both a year ago. Bisous to the whole family!
