Thanksgiving 2007

We had Thanksgiving at my parents house this year. We went to see Enchanted with the extended family before heading to their house for dinner.
They have 3 pear trees in front of their house. They are always the last trees on the block to loose their leaves. They left them all on the lawn so that they kids could play in them this year.
Sam was so excited about the whole thing. He even wanted a rake to help get the pile bigger. He would rake a bunch of them and then just flop down into the pile. Ethen loved that the pile was big enough for us to bury him completely. Our camera takes great action shots, so we got a few of the kids jumping into the pile.
It really makes you want to have trees.
Dinner went off with only one hitch. The 10 lbs of potatoes that Bryon peeled, burned in the pressure cooker that malfunctioned. We all suffered through the fake potatoes without too many complaints.
