Thanksgiving 2008

Anthony trying to reach Grandma's lamp. If only his arms were a tad bit longer.

Listening to Uncle Les together. How Interesting.

Grandpa and Anthony...GP says he would like to hold him, but he is afraid he will drop Anthony, "he is quite big".

Visiting with Grandpa. Anna wanted to sit with Uncle Marvin, because she says "I like him, Mom, I want to play with him."

Uncle Les is fun! He has the same smile as me.

Uncle Marv is "very nice and funny" those are Anna's words.

Patrick and Anthony, what are they...cousins?

We did not get a chance to play the traditional Croquet game, because of a storm, plus Kennith did not make it, despite Brooklin's disapointment. This time, we played spades, and guess who was beating the pros? I asked Uncle Les how come he was -100 points and he "kindly" replied "Thanks to You!". The winner, as always, was Grandma...but only by 10 points, I was second.

Waving at Grandma.

Once Anthony learns something he keeps on doing it. Plus he looks so CUTE!

The Turtles ("Turtoises!") were asleep. But that did not stop Anna from getting close and trying to wake them up. After taking a close look at the turtles ("Turtoises") house, Anna has an idea about how to built one for our own dogs. She says "we only need some screws (tornillos) and some plywood (madera), daddy can cut the shape".

Grandma's house is always full of surprises and "secret rooms".

Everything is so interesting for Anthony.

For Anna...it was, too. Only that she gets tired faster than Anthony.

She also spent a couple hours at the ER, after she fell off a step stool, or that is what she says. Her foot got all red and swolen...it was nothing serious, we were afraid it was broken, after all she is Joel's daughter. The nurse said that the x-ray was good. After 2 hours we were hungry and didn't wait for the Doctor. Everything was fine, she just twisted it a little.

We got to see Bobby, too.

How many men does it take to put a baby in a high chair?
