The big day went without a hitch except for our poor kidsitter coming down with the flu (feel better Tina!!). The neighbors came through though and Olivia happily went with the new arrangement. We were really proud of our friend Chip who came spouseless into a strange crowd. Having two kitchens was a little stressful for a control freak since I couldn't be in two places at once, but being in Sarah and Heather's kitchen was much more comfortable than I expected and we felt very welcome in their home.
All in all it was a pretty low-key with most people taking off by ten, but we were so exhausted that we didn't care. So from left to right you have Jim carving the turkey, usually an honor bestowed on the most esteemed special guest, which Jim thought was a pretty raw deal espcially since we lost the carving knife somewhere between the two kitchens. Next is the kid pile up on Jocelyn, then everyone loving Lane, the newest baby, and finally me being a charming and witty hostess.
As always I missed a ton of great shots being busy with other things, but at least you can get an idea of what goes on at the other family Thanksgiving. And yes, we invited people other than the lesbian posse, though these photos don't show it.
