How does one begin to express gratefulness and love for a family, residing in Pennsylvania, for including us in their Thanksgiving weekend extravaganza→ extraordinaire. (Nov 17,18,19)
This special family belongs to our youngest daughter's husband's Mom and Dad, Nancy and Keith.

Andrew, Wyatt, and daughter Lauren

Not only were we invited, but all of their siblings, moms, cousins, nieces, nephews were included, bringing the count for the Saturday feast to 34 +-ish.
St. John's Lutheran Church was the perfect place to host the Thanksgiving festivities.
