Thanksgiving 2008

Thanksgiving was a very good day this year. My brother and his family came here from Tennessee and Kerri and her crew were here from Virginia. We exchanged some Christmas presents with the out of towners. Marvin and his family love to get West Virginia clothes. (as least we think they do, because that is what we get them!!) This is my nephew Shane and his fiance.


This is one of the few pictures I have of Aaron. He doesn't sit still long enough to get his picture. He's having some quality time with Aunt Kelli. (In case you haven't heard, Kelli is giving me another Grandbaby in June!!)

The boys had a "pile on" with Uncle Jeff.

Grandma Rutherford got another cow for her collection.

Jacob and Joel got new WVU hoodies. (thank goodness, they are growing like weeds and their other WVU sweatshirts were too little)

Eli got a new Webkinz - a mouse he named "Goliath" and then nicknamed "Jerry".

Uncle Jeff colored a picture for my refrigerator.

Marvin drove all night and got here Thursday morning. Needless to say, he was pretty tired on Friday. He perked up on Friday and went to the WVU -Pitt game with Jeff and Stacie.

This is the only good picture I got of Danny. I don't know what I am going to do with these boys. They don't want their picutures taken any more.

Eli and Stacie were waiting patiently for dinner to be ready.

Kerri and I were in the kitchen all day Wednesday. I don't think I could have done it without her help. I hope she gets here early to help at Christmas too!!

Dee Dee got her WVU Santa hat she had been wanting.

All in all, it was a very good day. Lots of food and fellowship. It's hard to believe that it is December already. I guess I better get busy now and get my tree up and my decorating done.

I have a lot to do the next few weeks, but it will be fun. Hope your Thanksgiving was a good one and I better see some pictures on your blogs in the very near future!!
