Thanksgiving

I still cannot get this layout to work the way I want it, so you're getting a slew of pictures here first from our day of Thanksgiving. We have much to be thankful for and more than anything else the return of our brother, Bill. He has a long way to go, but he is whole and alive.

Aurora, Justin and Kelly's youngest daughter.
Kelly's mother, Mary Kay, holding Perry, Justin and Kelly's youngest child.

Abby and Anna. Anna was being a tad possessive with the coloring book.

Aaron. :)

Aaron's Grandmother Greenwood. How fortunate my girls are to be able to have a close relationship and know their great-grandmother.

Whitney, Justin and Kelly's oldest.

Mary, Aaron's only sister and youngest sibling. She really pulled Thanksgiving together.

Aurora again, just because. :)

Abby. :) "Did you say there was pie?"

Justin and Kelly. Justin is next in the sibling order after Aaron.

Aaron's dad, Bob, with Whitney.

Spencer. Justin and Kelly's oldest son. We spent quite a lot of time together. He was telling me all about some cool new computer game. :)

A group shot.

The kid's table.

Afton, David-Bob's brother, Mary, Whitney and Bob.

Our current babies, heading up the table, both very much enjoyed their Thanksgiving meal.

Thanksgiving was such a nice day. The food all turned out(I was so nervous about the turkey being dry, overcooked or undercooked, but it turned out really well) and there was plenty. This year we only celebrated with Aaron's family; next year we'll do mine. Making dinner was a group effort that was a lot of fun to see come together and as the Greenwood clan continues to grow this will probably be more and more what happens. I hope all of you had great days spent with those you love. We sadly were missing "Ganma" who spent Thanksgiving with Aaron's brother, Bill and his family at Walter Reed. We're very much looking forward to Aaron's other brother, Robert's wedding in the Spring. That will be the next time that hopefully the whole clan will be able to get together since summer of 2005.
We hope you all had wonderful days with your family and are returning back safely to your own homes.
