Happy Thanksgiving...Where's the Pie?

It's been a very fulfulling Thanksgiving! The day isn't over and there is still more pie and ice cream to be consumed, but it has been a wonderful day. This is the first time that both our families have been together for a major holiday. It was not quite "Christmas Vacation" but we tried as best we could to live up the the "Griswolds". We did however, manage to have 8 dogs, 1 cat, 8 adults and one newborn all together at the same time without any mishaps...that says something doesn't it?



I have enclosed a few photos below of the past week with Tom's folks here from Oregon (Grandma and Grandpa Archibald and a few from our great holiday today with Grandma and Grandpa Lamolli, Uncle Ryan and Great Grandma Lillian. The captions will explain the rest.....

Hey, where's that thing that fell out of my mouth?

Little Lillianna contemplating on Country Apple or Pumpkin? Hmmm.

Grandma Lamolli shows off her buns (can I say that on a blog?)

A few days ago, Lillianna had some hair issues following her bath.

After hearing the the Minnesota Vikings Cheerleaders would be performing at the Mall of America, we rushed to see them. They had just finished upon our arrival at center court. BUMMER, Lillianna was so disappointed. After reviving Daddy and Grandpa Archibald, we found other things to do at the mall instead. Daddy did happen to accidentally point his camera in their direction and took this shot as an afterthought.

We hope everyone had an outstanding Thanksgiving Holiday!

Where did the orange hair come from? Or is it just a reflection of her outfit? She is adorable. Reminds me of when Tommy was born, I used to call him Rusty.
Love Cathy

You know, I have been comparing Lillianna's recent pictures with the older ones and I think someone has swapped babies on you. This new Lillianna does not look like the one you had at the hospital (lol). Keep those pictures coming, I want to see if she keeps changing so drastically! I really would like to be able to hold her...
Love Aunt Cathy
