Thanksgiving Celebration, Christmas Party and Tahlia's 4th Birthday

November 25th, 2010 to November 28th, 2010


We were lucky enough to have a traditional Thanksgiving Dinner at the home of Jeff and Theresa.  It was delicious!!! 

The kids after the tryptophan kicked in!

Chris's company held their annual Christmas Party at Gambaro's restaurant.  It was a country and western theme. 

Brent and Becky Smith

This is as far as we were willing to take the "country and western" theme. 

The sunday after Thanksgiving we gathered at Captain Burke park at Kangaroo Point to have a non-tradional Thanksgiving meal.  Melisa made a delicious turkey and everyone else brought side dishes to share. 
We also celebrated Tahlia's 4th birthday!
