So I was asked to take a picture of all the grandchildren of my sister-in-law's family. Here is one of the shots taken in a situation where the lighting was bad, the background not great and the children were cute but crazed. All that being said, it came out ok! How do you get 9 children from ages 2-12 to cooperate, all look in the same direction and smile on cue? If you know, feel free to share.

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Birthday to my sister Anne Marie.

Bill and I don't always come to RI for Thanksgiving but decided to make the trek this year. I am glad we did. It was a fabulous day and the only thing missing was the birthday girl. My family is crazy and loud but I wouldn't trade them for anything. Here is the yearly picture of the "dead end kids" minus one. My oldest nephew left and was supposed to come by but he never did so I will have to photoshop him in at some point.

Before dinner, Bill and I took Angelee down to the beach..here is one of Angelee and Uncle Butterscotch, which is what she affectionately calls him.

I helped my sister make a whole bunch of pies today. I think the last count was 8 pies and a cheesecake. What are you thankful for?
