Thanksgiving weekend


While at my parent's house in Firth the Saturday after Thanksgiving, I went outside to start my run, and there were a few kittens belonging to the neighbors sitting on the porch. As I sat down to pet them, several more starting crossing the street and I soon had 8 of the 11 neighbor kittens gathered around me. Obviously they thought I had food or something. My questions is, Why do my neighbors even have 11 kittens? What really made me laugh about this was when I got up to start jogging, they ALL started following me. I was like the pied piper. I had to go back inside and sneak out the back door so I didn't have a trail of kittens that would most likely get smushed on the road.

Some of the Boyer family hanging out the Sunday after Thanksgiving. We ate Thanksgiving dinner in Aberdeen with Cameron's family on Thursdsay, and I forgot to take my camera. It was a lot of driving in one week, but we were excited to go to Firth as well that weekend. It was fun to spend time with the newest member of the family, Brett. He fits right in!

The "Men" where they should be--in the kitchen! Cameron is an excellent cook and he and I planned and cooked dinner for the family on Sunday as it was my mom's birthday. What better present could a mom want?

Fun times in the Boyer house!

Spending time with family is always great. Have to take advantage of it when ever the opportunity comes. Nathaniel and I need your new address. Hope all is well.

Oh how I love your family! I just found a picture of you, Vance, Brianna, and Brittnee taken at Grandma Boyer's many years ago. I laughed and had a tear! I can't believe how the time flys and soon everyone is grown up so fast.
