Happy Thanksgiving from California!!

This year we were able to drive to San Diego for Thanksgiving to spend the holiday with my ENTIRE family...  My mom and dad and Steve and Andrea also drove down.  We had such a good time at my sister's house...  The cousins are best friends and love to hang out together.  It never seems like we have enough time there...  My sister and I could spend hours talking and laughing and just hanging out.  

San Diego was beautiful (of course)...  Temperature was 60's to 70's and sunny.  Ryan took the kids to the beach a couple of days, we went to the San Diego Chargers blood drive to watch my niece and nephew perform (and also to donate blood), and cooked and cooked to get ready for Thanksgiving Day.  All in all, we had 30 people at my sister's for dinner!  Thank heavens her house is huge...  She is such an amazing entertainer and decorator - the tables were the most beautiful I have ever seen/eaten at!  And the food was so, so good.

The pretty table settings.

All four of the tables (and the men watching football).

Devin (Emily's boyfriend), Aubrey, Kailey, my sister Hadley, and Emily.

These three girls are the very best of friends (Julia, Megan and Ashley).



Andrea and Steve (my brother).
And a silly pic...  Andrea and I took pictures of us taking pictures of each other
