Thanksgiving memories...

Thanksgiving at the Rogers' home in Clover is an annual tradition. Mom and Dad come down from Asheville as well as Ren and Linda and Berleigh from Connecticutt. Bennett was only down for the day this year due to car trouble Wednesday evening. So he's only in one picture sadly... I also realized Mom and Abigail are missing... sorry! Ollie, Pam and Derek can be seen in the Birthday Blog pictures!
Bennett, Eric, Caleb and Dad chilling in the den. Jeff and Nancy discuss the latest DVD...

I need a new hairstyle! One of the few pictures I'm in.

Ren and Linda... and Berleigh!

Nancy and Caleb watching television... a Veggie Tales movie perhaps!

Pete's holding Caleb while Caleb studies Berleigh.

Nathaniel and Caleb play trucks and tools on the floor.

Caleb loves playing with the "jello" clings on the door windows.

Nathaniel building a tower from wooden spools.

Watching football - I have no idea who was playing.
Linda and David discuss dishwashing (just guessing!!) :)


Ren and Linda giving farewell hugs Saturday morning.


Berleigh is ready to go! (Note Nathaniel and Caleb's reflections in the window.)

The End of November!!!

This has been Emily's birthday week! We started celebrating while in Clover for Thanksgiving. It was great having the whole Rogers family together for several days, including Alan's parents from New Mills, England! The Asheville branch of the family celebrated together at Yoshida's - a Japanese Steak House! While we were waiting to get our table, Caleb checked out a Christmas tree. Our host took a picture of ALL of us! Emily, Eric, Mom, Caleb, me, Jeff, Dad, Bennett, Trent, Amanda, Joan and Larry!

A close up of everyone!

Here's a video of Caleb playing the birthday drum after we all sang and clapped!
