Thanksgiving at the Olson / Edwards!

Brenden spent Thanksgiving with his Aunt & Uncle, Mike & Deb. I see by the pictures that Deb sent, that he dressed up for the event.

Cousins - Derek, Mackenzie & Brenden enjoying a Guiness!

Thanksgiving 2009!

For the past several years we have celebrated Thanksgiving with the Keatings! Judy met Mary when we first moved here. They worked together at Filene's. It is great for us, as all I have to do is bring the turkey, stuffing and gravy - they do the rest.
