Thanksgiving for 15


This year we were down two adults with Shawn and Michele both missing. We also had three extra sweeties with Thomas and Natalie's two Foster sons and ours. Natalie is in charge of Thanksgiving, sometimes cooking and other years making the restaurant arrangements. Last week end she cooked for a houseful of friends including their boys' family.
