Thanksgiving in Spokane
























































We all had the opportunity to visit all of the "Fenn girls" who just happened to be in the same spot at the same time....in Spokane! Kristin, Jesse and Landon opened their house and oven to the Fenn's for an early Thanksgiving feast. Kerri flew up from Long Beach, Ca, Kimmy and her friend Tony drove over from Tacoma and the rest of the 4 Fenns drove over on Saturday. Snoqualime Pass was very pretty and we got to experience a good snowstorm to the delight of Nikki and Lindsay. Kerri took a week off and was able to visit with Kristin & Jesse and once we arrived to babysit, they all went out to see that new vampire/wolf/love story movie. Jesse and I enjoyed watching the Seattle Sea Slugs loose on Sunday and at the same time, enjoy 3 plates of "slow turkey", potatoes, cow slobber (pistachio jello jiggly desert), black olives, yams, gravy, dressing and the red stuff I don't like (cranberry sauce). I made up for that with a piece of huckleberry/apple pie and pumpkin pie. We ended up taking a lot of video's of Landon, who is walking all over the place now! Kristin has now lost control! She and Kerri will be sending some pictures soon and we will add them to the blog.
Okay, I'm tired of the rain. I need to find a Navy job somewhere there is warm weather, aqua colored water lapping up on the beach, an endless supply of fruity rum drinks for Kelly and I, a fast food drive through that actually gets the order right, a tire shop that is "fair and balanced" and a 5g network that allows me to talk on the cell phone inside of a building. Here is a good idea, let's save money on sending rockets to Mars or crashing a perfectly good rocket into the Moon to see if there is a dust cloud AND give me a car that gets 100 MPG using good ole gas and a cell phone that works! It's not that hard!
Sorry...I must need a nap....
