the orphan thanksgiving was resurrected this year, much to my pleasure. we haven't had a big bash since 2005, so i was excited to have a few people over to celebrate my favorite holiday with us. what began as 8 people eventually grew to 21 as more "orphans" made their way to us. joy!

evie went down for her nap before anyone had arrived, so she was a little started when she woke up and found a houseful of people. fortunately camille was here and took charge of entertaining quinn and evie. evie quickly adjusted and decided it was a great day since there were so many nice people to entertain her.

dan and richard were kind enough to haul over the fryer and deep fry a beautiful 23 pound bird for the masses.






camille was assigned double duty for the day. in addition to some excellent quinn-sitting, she was responsible for the mashed potatoes with mike. let's just say she took her cream and butter duties very seriously.
