Last Days of November

Valerie had some gigs at the end of November. She played as part of a quartet at a funeral and also at Christmas Preview downtown. We had to get her some proper attire. Here Valerie sports the "orchestra" look with cello appropriate skirt.









Here Valerie sports her "festive" attire for the event downtown.








She played as part of a large ensemble of delis and violins at Peets Coffee.








Neni & John are an important part of that fan base!








Back at the castle, Michael & Spot are football fans. Nothing like a couch bunny!!








Suddenly it was Thanksgiving. We didn't take too many photos, but here is a shot of the "main event" - 28 lbs of yard bird! Too busy eating and being thankful to take photos.










Also, here is a festive table with family China and family silverware. It's like we are all grown up or something.










Susan & John brought a delicious 51 year old port to share.










Hey! That's actually older than us!










The next thing you know, Michael & Rex are working shifts at the Boy Scout Christmas tree lot. So, they brought a tree home. The girls helped to set up and decorate.










Into that downhill slide through December. I may not see snow on the ground, but this sled is picking up speed!!
