An Ohio Thanksgiving!



Let's start off with an evening of bowling!  

Jason must have had a strike.



Larry too!



High five bro.


Bowling is serious business.


 Pizza, popcorn and pink lemonade.
Dinner of champions.




Little Drakie being an excellent little boy as usual.



Now, time for the dance off!
Shake your groove thing sister!


What happens in the kitchen, stays in the kitchen.
Until I post it.








Now time for the punch off.


Here we are dining at BJ's in celebration of Summer's 31st birthday.  

Quiet please, Drake is making a conference call.



Happy Birthday dear Summer....
Make a wish baby!



We went on a little outing to Trader Joe's to check out the Holiday decorations.




Someone must have had a little too much Christmas cheer when putting up this tree.

Rumbleseat was calling my name.
Cheers!

What would a trip to Ohio be without a few stops to Rumbleseat wine!


Our wine expert.

And now on to the reason we flew out to Kettering - Thanksgiving with the Merrill's!


Kaia wanted to dress festive for the big day, so off we went to find the perfect dress and the prettiest heels

.....and boots.  
Love my beautiful granddaughters!

Jason's friend Mike and Marie were there to join in the fun, 
along with the newest Merrill - Raja SHAKA ZULU

Seriously, I have no idea.


Love this pic.

 Drake's new friend Vivi.

Summer made festive place settings for all of us.

THE TABLE!





  Indie loves her G.

Kaia said "I'm Uncle Jay Jay!"
LOL



 Our boys.  What a handsome group.

The girls cuddled up with G watching a little Pippy Longstocking.


And here is the photo I took for their family Christmas card.  How'd I do?
We went to downtown Dayton for the Christmas tree lighting and parade.  So fun, yet so cold. Drake was braver than I.

Time to leave.  If this is how you look after your trip - you had an awesome time!!

Until next time!
