It was a Happy Thanksgiving.


Practicing the drums in preparation for the Cousin Talent Show. The Alan Curtis family talents included: Doing a somersault (by Will) and Singing "Christmas in the West" (by Alex).
Will sat at the table, ate his turkey dinner off of china and silver, and was quite civilized. I was shocked and pleased. He really is growing up...
...but is also still our baby. (And don't you think the hair keeps him looking more babyish? I do.)
Fishing at the Curtis Family Fishpond.
This is a tradition put on every Thanksgiving at Nana and Papa's. Each grandchild fish's for prizes chosen out especially for them by Nana. The kids love it! There was also a rousing game of Pin-the-hat-on-the-turkey- it was quite hysterical. What a great day. The best part: Alan, Alex, Will and I were in bed by 7:30pm. Lovely.
