A Lovely Thanksgiving Day

We met at Robin & David's at 4:00 pm to enjoy their newly renovated backyard.
A fountain will go where the milkcan now is.
Philip drew the plans for this clever use of space.
Luke, Jerry Stevens, Grandpa Seelye & Robin
We all walked the 2 blocks to Philip & Abby's newly-made studio apartment.
Jessica, Melissa & Anni Weins shared the day with us.

Grandma emerging from the spiral staircase upstairs.
Abby made a delicious salad & cheese, apple, nut snack -yum!
The day had gotten up to 82 degrees, but it cooled off when the sun set. The fire from the brazier gave us a little warmth so we could eat outside.
You can see the front door in the background.
Grandma's Chinese friend, Queenie, is in the US while her daughter attends Biola.
Anders is getting so big!
Kirk & Jerry looking over Abby's new cookbook that she's trying out
Is was so nice to get to know John Jensen, Chris's dad,
who was out from Ohio for the holiday.
We walked back to R&D's for dinner & dessert. What a lovely afternoon & evening!
We have SO much to be grateful for!!

Really nice! I'd love a few of these pictures... I didn't really take any in our backyard, and maybe a couple from P and A's apartment would be nice. Wasn't that fun? Such good memories...
