aldabro: November 2011

BFF

It's hard when a BFF lives so far away. The best part is, when we do see each other, we pick up like it was yesterday. Now that we are older, and have a bit more time, we decided to meet half way for lunch. The weather cooperated, and we were able to meet Sue and David in Saco for a wonderful relaxed lunch. Nancy joined us too!
We went to this wonderful micro brewery, a renovated mill. I definitely would go back.

Sue, David, and Nancy... (and thank you Nancy for you hospitality later on.)

Us......

After lunch, since it was such a beautiful day, we were treated to a walk on OOB. November 26, and we were comfortably walking on the beach. Kids were barefoot playing in the sand, families walking and enjoying the outdoors. We looked up and saw 4 horses getting in on the fun. I wished I had taken my bathing suit, because I would have jumped in, just to say that I swam on November 26th. (Those of you that know me, know what I am talking about.)

Here's to you, Sue. Another memory created. Just a wonderful day. Let's try to make it something we do often, not just once a year.

Thanksgiving 2011

We let Dawson take the pictures this year to capture the Thanksgiving gathering. He did a fine job. Here are some we wanted to share.....
Lexy and Bear. Bear wanted to be part of the party, too!

He even got one of us. Love having everyone here, no matter what day or for how long.

This has to be the grandchildren's favorite holiday decoration. It's a small mailbox. They get the biggest charge out of opening it, or putting letters in it. Dawson wrote one to his great grandparents, and even got a real letter in the real mail box.

Uncle Gavin....

Jen ventured outside with the kids to make a snow "flamily"... they did an amazing job. It's been many years since we have had snow men on our lawn. Got to admit, I really like it!
