#11-46 Thanksgiving in Lancaster, CA

007
Doug Price and his family (his 2 sons and Mom and Dad) came over for Thanksgiving dinner.  Doug’s Mom, Diana (Wright), and I graduated from the same high school, so we looked over some year books and found a few pictures of ourselves.  It was fun.

Below, the “Granddads” relaxed and watched some football.

Doug and Laurie cut up the Turkeys.  We had a cook-off to see whose turkey was the best.  Allie, Rachel’s husband smoked their turkey, while Laurie cooked hers on the Weber.  Laurie’s turkey was cooked clear through, while Allie and Rachel’s was still raw in the center, but was cooked really had the smoky flavor.  I’d say it was a draw!

We had thirteen places set for dinner.  Everyone seemed to enjoy and all of us were very full by the end of the day.  Even our son, Ray and his wife with Aubrey and Alex drove over from La Quinta.

The three kids had a great time playing in the yard.  Riding the tractor, checking out the sand box, jumping into the pile of leaves and enjoying the nice weather we had for the day.  Thanks, Laurie and Rachel for all the work you put into serving such a wonderful dinner.
