Thankful they slept some of the way
Thankful Remy learned to use the headphones
Brian attaching toilets
Uncle Kerry and Uncle Mark (looking thrilled) to be doing door knobs
Nana Kaytlin and Zoe
Kids entertaining themselves as the adults worked.
That is the pointer figer making sure I got the falls in the pictureThankful for a stop at the falls -
We stopped in Boise on the way there, but from Lincoln City Oregon to our home it took 16 hours with stops...I think we were all a little crazy at the end
Special thanks to our friend Rachel who let us stay in her condo on the beach. It was cold and cloudy but beautiful!
Note for posterity sake. I LOVE Thanksgiving. I may have Christmas issues but I LOVE Thanksgiving. Because of the work being done on this house Min and Ker are building we decided to order a dinner from Albertsons. Somehow Thursday morning Kerry went to hook up the oven only to discover there was no cord.

As for me I'm still trying to figure out how a professional chef can screw up pumpkin pie....Seriously, all you have to do is follow the label on the Libby's can, it's not rocket science.
I am so grateful for all of my blessings including the opportuinty to go and help my sister. I am also grateful my mom and Mark joined the fun (we missed you Matt, fam and Jana)
I am however having do-overs on the dinner and fixing MY turkey on Sunday.

Mel, I know it all didn't work out in "OUR, yes you and me being so much the same, WORLD" BUT I have to say I haven't seen so many cute fun LOVING pictures of your sweet precious family! The one of brian and pointing to the falls. Didn't noticed the falls as much Remz smiling at his DAD!!!!
I have to leave another!!!!!!!! What a CUTE, CUTE, CUTE little girl you have!!!!! I know I don't have boys, but GIRLS!!! I could take little Zoe home with me FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!
You're back where you started - in Oregon doing home-building. You've come a long way from building that HFH shed! Way to go - your family is always so good to be there for each other to pitch in and help.
And I have to second Steph's comment about Zoe. She looks so grown up in those photos. She is CAAAUUUUUTE!
You are such a great example to me of service. Your sister is blessed to have you.
Cute pictures of the kiddo's! They are so adorable! The pic. of Mark and Kerry uuuhhh, not so adorable :) we love them anyway! So I'm with ya on the pumpkin pie! Even I can make a pretty decent pumpkin pie following the recipe on the Libby's can (of course)!
