Stamford CT - Thanksgiving

Smaller group but I think the same amount of food. We did our best to take it all in. Absolutely gorgeous day for late November - we all got outside and some of us made the traditional Thanksgiving walk up the hill. And another birthday celebration for Lizzy!

Stamford CT - the next leg of the trip








Eileen, Peter, Abby, Lizzy, Tom and Eddie all kept us busy once we arrived in Stamford. We had baking, card playing - Stamford rules, school visits, neighborhood walks and the list goes on.

New Jersey - a long weekend with the brothers and families















Grandma and I made our yearly trek to the East. We started in New Jersey with Neil, Ed, Grace, Lara and Christopher.
An action packed weekend - soccer championships, lunch and a play in the City, a neighborhood party and cheering the Vikings to victory. And more than enough good food and fill in activities along the way. Lara decided it was time to get organized for Christmas as well over our visit.

Saint Paul - Mary hosts another mini-reunion


This time Lynn Stolp, Mary and I were able to enjoy an evening with Agnes Kilpatrick.
Another evening of great stories, life stories and memories of good times long, long ago.

Saint Paul - another amazing November weekend




A week later so a bit cooler and greyer but still way above normal and a great November weekend.
Got another bike ride in followed by our monthly brunch at Hell's Kitchen - what more could you ask!!!

Saint Paul - BBQing at Mary's in November

Saint Paul - Biking in November!







It has been warmer in Saint Paul in November than it was in October - one strange weather year.
It was in the mid 40s when we took off and worked itself into the 60s. When any luck we will get another opportunity again next week.
Even Carly came out and joined us for coffee...we didn't know if she could come out in the sun!
