Thanksgiving 2007

This was our first year hosting thanksgiving. Ryan of course did all the cooking,

so no worries on that front. I tired cooking dinner a week ago, and baby Clingenpeel was

not having it; no more cooking for me for a while!

Not surprisingly, Ryan cooked an amazing meal. And we have leftovers for anyone that wants to try his great cooking. It was a good day, and we have plenty to be thankful for.

I finally was able to keep some bows in her hair, though they didn't stay in long. She was adorable with them in.
My dad. Unfortunately Gale wasn't there, she was with her daughter
and her grandkids. That's the problem you encounter, scheduling a time for everyone.

Ray and his baby Ariel.

We laugh now, because 4 years ago Ray refused to have a dog in the house. Now they are attached at the hip! Funny how things change
