We Gather Together

Good God, lets eat . Brett brought a CASE of outstanding red wines, which we thoroughly enjoyed (well, not the whole case)


As easy as falling off a log

Everyone arrived for the long Thanksgiving weekend. Kris and Brett arrived first, on Tuesday night after we had gone to bed. They had a quiet visit before the mob burst in. Brett helped make the apple cake and Kristen tore up the bread for the dressing.We ate at a mediocre restaurant that evening called Aquaria. We ate there because I had a gift certificate, and then forgot to use it. Genius, eh?
Devon and Ray and the gang got in about ten thirty Wed night with three sleepy kids who promptly went to bed, and then remained awake for the next two hours. I was up early Thanksgiving morning to stuff the turkey and put it in the oven. Before we ate we went out geocaching and found two caches! This was a new adventure for the non Boatwright members, and it was a lot of fun, hiking through wooded areas and following cell phone GPS directions. We also had a fantastic time playing beanbag toss, football and tag in the front yard prior to the big meal.The weather was cool and perfect and the pix of this activity can be found on Devon's blog.
