Jeanne's House, Nov 2004

This year's Thanksgiving trip to Jeanne's lasted from from the 23-26 Nov 2004. The major novelty of this trip was that I got to both visit my cousins *and* get Beth to meet them! It was a great trip. Wonderful. Relaxing. Also lacking in Dad for the first day or so, which was odd...

Tim, Emma, and Animals
We were there for barely minutes before I had a pile of animals, and weird slippers, on me.
Snow Cone Maker
Aah, the excitement of a new toy!
Tigger on the Table
I'm not used to this being an allowed thing.
Lauren
Kinda under the weather at this point, but still recognizably my cousin.
Weiner Bun
Already jumping up on people.
Height Comparison
By this graph, you can see that Matt is very tall.
Tigger
A nice shot of this poor cat, who's not doing all that well...
Skyline Kitty
Minimal eye reflections! Yay, new camera!
Lauren and Skyline
Awww...
Grandpa Bob and Beth
Trying to work out how to use the snow-cone makers. I guess.
Grandpa and Beth, II
Well, until they spotted the camera.
Rachael the Dancer
Heading off to practice, I think.
Emma Risk Her Life
That's the kind of thing photographers like to see! But not mothers.
Tim
Somebody got a hold of my camera. I'm scruffy!
Emma
Aah, photogenic cousins.
Happy Tim
Still scruffy, but one of the better smiles I have on film.
Tim and Emma
I won't be able to hold her next year. Gotta get it in while I can.
Welcome Door
I did feel welcome. I always feel welcome there.
WB and Emma's Leg
Emma's Leg is WB's favorite toy. I don't think that's a good thing.
Learning to Knit
Beth wanted to learn to knit; Aunt Jeanne helped her out, and they both had fun.
Playing Video Games
Playing video games on my legs, most of the time.
Greg and Tigger
Part of my goal for this trip was to get a decent picture of Greg.
Greg and Tigger, II
It didn't really happen.
Sleepy Dog
WB looked cute with his snout all propped up like that.
Sleepy Family
Okay, so they all looked cute.
Mom
Yup. That's Mom.
Tigger
I like it when cats give you the "stop taking my picture!" look.
Dad Arrives
Pre-stained, too.
Rachael
Pleae don't bite me, Rachael!
Danny and WB
WB makes everyone pose better.
Dad, Greg, and Rachael
Dad and Rachael look happy, anyway.
Celeste and WB
Another newcomer to the household holds the dog.
Grandpa Bob Helps with Dinner
Grandpa is always fun when he's helping.
Grandpa Bob Helps with Dinner, II
Except when he has a knife.
Greg and WB
Greg loves his dog.
Greg and WB, II
And with his dog, he photographs well!
Emma and Dinner
I can't tell if it's the ham, or the desire to ham.
Beth and WB
Beth really, really loved Weiner Bun. And I gotta admit, they pose well.
Happy Beth and WB, II
She wants nothing more than a dog like him now.
Successful Knitting
Beth has gotten it figured it out! Huzzah!
WB in Cage
He isn't always upset to be in his cage...
Thanksgiving Dinner Preparations
Getting ready for the feast.
Thanksgiving Table
Preparing for nice food..
Twenty-Somethings Table
Hmmph. I never get to sit and the little-and-big-people's table.
Main Table
Posing for the camera. Around: Rachael, Mom, Dad, Lauren, Greg, Matt, Grandpa Bob, Emma, Jeanne
Greg at the Head
Still not a good picture. *sigh*
Greg at the Head, II
Better. Determined, anyway.
View from the Small Table
At least we got dinner first.
Lauren Reading
She knows how to deal with bad movies.
Knitting, Popcurn, and Remote
Everybody's Happy!
Dad and Emma
Emma loves our visits, can you tell?
Sitting Around
Beth, Danny, Matt, Rachael, and Tim.
Danny Boozes It Up
What Thanksgiving dinner isn't helped by a drunken member?
Dad and Capt. Underpants
Dad loves reading to the girls.
Dad and Capt. Underpants, II
And for some reason the Captain Underpants stores are the most fascinating.
