A Ping Pong Thanksgiving

Well, we're back from a "ping pong" Thanksgiving as we'd like to call it. As the pictures demonstrate, fun was had by all! We had fun spending time with both the Albright Family and the Gropp Family.


Dad Albright and Josh (Josh making breakfast and Dad testing his turkey thermometer)

Mom Albright making Apple Crumb Pies

Dad Albright getting the peanut oil ready to fry the turkey

Matt and his friend Scotty (they were only able to visit for a few hours from Maine, but it was still great to see them)


Dad Gropp with Professor Higgins and Eliza Doolittle in on a walk in the woods

Ben, Josh, and Heidi on a walk in the woods

Heids and I on the woods walk

Thanksgiving dinner at the Gropps (with the Caies, Owen-Smiths, Grandma and Grandad Gropp, and Marsha Jerritts from church as well)

Ben and Josh enjoying the fire while we decorate the tree

Steve and Eliza Doo'

Dad Gropp and Josh hanging the lights on the tree (it's funny to see a ladder next to the tree, as we never needed one with the artificial tree at Little Brook Road N.)

Grandma and Grandad Gropp taking it all in :)

Heidi in the balcony taking it all in!

Mom organizing the ornaments

Hanging some more ornaments

Mom Gropp hanging our stockings. Josh and I get to share this year ;) hehe

Higgins has some other plans for these ornaments :)...don't those belong outside???

Whew! That decorating is tough work...is it time for some cheese and crackers yet?

Nope...not yet :) hehe


After an 8 and a half hour ride from CT to Baltimore on Sunday, we are now in full gear for

MISSION EVERYTHING BUT IMPOSSIBLE

It was strange to return to our apartment last night and not have Edgar with us (no, he didn't die)- Mom Gropp graciously offered to care for him while we find a place in FL. Before we brought him to CT, we wanted him to feel like he was a part of this important life event, so we took some "Pre-moving" pics :)

What do you think he thinks of yet another move?

In his almost three year old lifetime, he has lived in 3 (soon to be 4) locations, has ridden on many screeching subways, trains, buses, cars, trucks, and has vacationed in many a location.

why Dad, why??????

"Our 1st Move"



Don't pack me up!!!
