A wonderful time was had by all. We truly enjoyed our time with all of you.

Thanksgiving in RI

We really missed everyone yesterday on Thanksgiving. Wish we could have been there! I'll post some photos of our Thanksgiving here, and hopefully you'll all post yours. Then we can pretend we were all together.

Love, Chris

This last one was Kelly taking artfully interesting pics of my behind. Such a nice daughter.

North Shore Pittsburgh

After strolling the park we had a lunch at Jerome Bettis' restaurant there.
This is a new statue honoring Mr. Rogers. It's on the river near Heinz Field.
Dad and I had a pleasant morning a couple days ago when we drove down to the northshore of Pittsburgh. (It has become a very nice park area along the Allegheny including areas in front of the Steelers stadium and the Pirates ballpark.) Two ships, replicas of Christopher Columbus's "Nina" and "Pinta" are on the Allegheny River for touring. We went on board but didn't get to see them under sail.

Happy Halloween!

Lily's 1st Halloween!

Family Get-Togethers in Late October

We had dinner with Sue and Larry, Josh and Veronica and the boys this past Sunday. Josh and Veronica had taken the boys to a local pumpkin farm earlier to go on a hayride, check out the pumpkins etc. Caleb had a pumpkin painted on his cheek there - cute.

Tuesday we drove to Carlisle for a short but nice visit with the Carlisle Rowaders. Nurse Kate stopped by after her afternoon's classes for a visit and dinner with us. Then we went with Tom and Val to Geneva's fall choral concert at the high school, followed by a her strings orchestra concert. Both were very nice - it's a pleasure to hear Geneva play the cello.

Nice day for a run

Here's Brett running cross country for his middle school. He ends up around the middle of the pack, usually. We're just glad he's out there getting some real exercise!

For those of you not on facebook, here is a cool cake that Laura made for her coworkers. awesome Laura
