Thanks and Giving

Mmm, Sweet Potatoes (that Grandma made special, just for me)!

Thanksgiving this year was very memorable. Most all of our nearby family and friends were around and we had a great time together! Roll call: Cousin Aaron (he is awesome-a hilarious and creative free spirit), Grandma and Wayne (intregal 'connectors' of our family), Kristin, Lindy (prego!), and Kim - all beautiful as ever, Carly and Matt (who performed surgery - well, removed my 16 stiches over break!), Aunts and Uncles and Daniel and Leanne (17 really?), and many many more! We had lots of visiting time, eating time (of course),excellent music (JAM, Aaron and Matt)... We had a total blast! We greatly appreciate all the work my Mom did with cooking and organizing - she fed the multitudes! We will not forget this trip! Family is key.

As for life back in Maryland, we are nearly fully moved into our new house thanks to my Dad and Mom's help. They should go into business for moving - since Carly and I have moved out for college, they have supported nearly every move we have made (that's a lot!).
