Thanksgiving 2010

We spent Thanksgiving down in Virginia. Mom and Dad had a house full and Dave cooked the ENTIRE dinner for 16 people all by himself (well, I checked on some things in the oven, but we won't count that). 

Here he is with the 22lb. turkey. Thanks to Catherine and Hannah for bringing the meat thermometer or we might have been waiting until midnight for that sucker to cook.

 Sophie had some close encounters with Vahid the tortoise. Soon he'll be as big as she is. 

 On Thanksgiving morning we ran a 5K (Sophie cheered with mom from the sidelines). She probably worked off at least one piece of pie... maybe. 

 Sophie had her first taste of turkey.  From the looks of it she seems to like it. But we haven't actually found a food that she doesn't like. 

 We went for a hike on Friday.

Candice

I recently realized that I don't have any pictures of Candice on this blog. Since she's the person Sophie spends most of her days with - we must have a picture! 

Do you speak Swahili?

Apparently Sophie thinks it might be a good language to learn.
Her new things is clicking her tongue and then waiting for you to click yours back. Here's a video.
