Thanksgiving

We normally spend our Thanksgivings braving the cold, snowy weather in western PA with all of Stephen's extended family. This year was a bit different; we all (all 20 of us) agreed upon a family cruise to the Bahamas.

We started out in Marco Island where we spent a couple of days before we sailed away. This is one of our favorite restaraunts on the island...a dolphin just so happened to surface while I was taking a picture.

It's just not right for late Nov./early Dec. is it????

When Allie was asked what she was thankful for: fruit, juicy drinks, mommy and daddy, God up in heaven, Izzy. (Poor Gabe, maybe you'll make the list next year bud.)

Snowbirds are very smart people! I WILL be one....one of these days. South Florida is gorgeous this time of year.

We especially loved spending so much time with Gram (Susan's mom). We had her all to ourself for a couple of days before we met up with the rest of the PA crew. We love you Gram....Gabe misses sitting on your lap.

To be continued (cruise pics to come)...

Emily had so much fun playing with Allie and Gabe, she has not stopped talking about the cruise since we got home and she is excited to tell he class all about her cousins and all the fun they had tomorrow when she goes back to school. Miss you guys already. Love Amy, Jr and Emily

P.S. Allie how is Chinchilla doing, Emily would like to know?

Wish you were still here. It's much too quiet this morning. I am missing my cuddle buddies.
