Thanksgiving Pictures

I'm finally uploading our recent pictures now that we have a lightening-fast fiberoptic connection at home. This picture of Mat and his mom was taken at Mat's Great Aunt Margie's house.



This is Aunt Margie. She entertained the boys with new remote control trucks.



These pictures were taken at the Black Savage family brunch. (This is not meant to be a derogatory expression. My mom's maiden name is Black and her mom's maiden name was Savage. Therefore, our family get-togethers are attended by Black Savages.)

The whole group. Unfortunately the battery died before Mat found his spot in the shot. (Can someone please email a version of this with Mat in it?)



Aunt Helen and my mom.



Cousin Donice.



Hanging with Grammy and Papa. Luke said my dad's name for the first time which was a big thrill.



Jackson was thrilled to get to visit with my cousin Chris who is a Delta pilot! Every time we see a plane nowadays, he says he thinks Chris is probably flying it to Atlanta.



The Stempel family Thanksgiving / Christmas weekend pictures. Here is Lukey on a walk.



This is Jackson with Mat's cousin Wyatt who lives in Steamboat Springs, CO. Jackson and Wyatt had a ball together playing with Cars cars and watching movies.



A self-portrait.



Wyatt can read!! We were all very impressed.



Making cookies with Christopher and Kirsten.





Mat's family has a long-standing tradition to cut down a Christmas tree together during the Thanksgiving weekend. This is where we went to get the tree.













And here is the tree.



There are lots more Thanksgiving 2007 pictures on our Flickr page.
