Nice family Pat. Pics do make great souvenirs from these very precious moments.

Thanks Marcel... mostly candids, not much posing but I got more Thursday at Joe's for Turkey Day, Friday at my brothers and Saturday at my daughters...

I will put together an album of shots for all the kids when I am done!! :)

Day 332 - November 28th, 2013

Today was Thanksgiving... we met close friends ( I worked with Don for 21 years ending in 1989) for Breakfast. They were down to see their kids and ironically we found out years ago that we stay at the same motel in Plymouth MI when we go back at Thanksgiving. From there, we went back to Joe's for our Thanksgiving Celebration.

Spotted this barn on the way out....
