We spent three days in Florence, OR with the Bartlett family for Thanksgiving. This year the family rented a church instead of being at Grandpa and Grandma's place - the family is growing! :) There was lots of space for everyone to hang out, a big kitchen to prepare the Thanksgiving dinner, and even a game room in the basement with air hockey, ping pong and foosball. We all had a wonderful time and I was glad to get to know Dave's family better!
Here are some snapshots of the weekend. :)
The beach was only a few minutes away, so a bunch of us went there before it started to rain.
Sisters :)
Strong young men playing with big sticks! :) They made a huge splash when they threw the logs in the water.
The whole group, minus Aunt Ruth Ann who was taking the photo - thanks!
Andrew twirling around a long piece of kelp....or seaweed....(what is that thing?) Anyways...Justin and Tony were getting a huge amount of air jumping over it!
We tried to let Grandma have some rest from prepping Thanksgiving dinner and doing dishes, but she always managed to be in the kitchen most of the time! ;)
Guys talking. :)
Beautiful Kim - she's got that pregnancy glow. ;)
Sisters :)
Cousins.
We all gathered around the piano Thanksgiving evening and sang hymns while Aunt Christine played.
Kelly and Aaron
Philemon playing ping pong. :)
The little girls loved to have the guys give them shoulder rides. :)
Dave with his little buddy. :)
I may have more Thanksgiving pictures up later. :)

It looks like you guys had so much fun! How does one even hear about churches that are available for rent?!
Very cool, you got a good variety of shots, something I failed to do. The beach looks like it was chilly, is it North Jetty? Good times.
