Thanksgiving Day
-
Lara might be noticing something good on TV.
-
Lara obligingly looks cute for the camera.
-
The beginning of the trademark smile.
-
Rachel speed-dialing.
-
Grandpa/Dad/Charlie and Great-aunt/Aunt/Eileen.
-
Little kewpie is ready for the new day.
-
The bakers show off the fruit of their efforts: Vanilla Kipferl.
-
Little red-faced one objects to the procedure. It's necessary, we assure her.
-
Rachel and Ryan in the living room.
-
They inspect Rachel's new digital camera.
-
Lara sleeps in Grandpa's arms.
-
Heavy-lidded Lara.
-
Kathi examines an avocado. We decide it isn't ripe enough for quacamomle today.
-
Kathi and Lara and I wait to cross the pseudo-freeway that's inbetween Linda's house and the Winn-Dixie supermarket.
-
Three siblings, a husband and a baby! Linda, Rainer, Kathi, Lara, Mike.
-
Linda rocks Lara.
-
The detritus of lunch. And we're going to eat Thanksgiving dinner in a few hours?!
-
A wet Lara in the bath.
-
Boy in Blue holds Baby in Pink. Uncle Mike looks suitably somber.
-
The first of two turkeys has emerged from the hot peanut oil deep-fryer.
-
Randomness reigns in the side yard. The hot fire feels good in the cool late afternoon air.
-
Grandpa/Dad/Charlie carves the first turkey.
-
The deep-fry crew: Kathi, Gary, Rainer.
-
Mike mugs for the camera.
-
Ryan prepares yummy sweet potatoes.
-
Ryan and Rachel at the set table.
-
A closer view! Ryan is indub itably tall.
-
51 years of sharing Thanksgiving together - and counting -
-
The crowd exiled at the breakfast bar (only 8 fit at the table, and we were 11.)
-
Thanksgiving dinner.
-
Great-aunt Eileen and little niece Lara.
-
The hostess with the mostest - Linda - with Mom and Dad.
-
Lara is learning to play peek-a-boo with a cloth.
-
The sweetest baby in the world, and we are all thankful she is here with us this year, and that everything is going fine.
