Well, thanksgiving has come and gone and it has been another year of great family gatherings! The thanksgiving celebration started the Sunday before thanksgiving with the Maros at a country club. The Maros normally have their party at the Grandparents house but Tom's grandmother has been sick so the decision was made to ease her burden and have dinner out with everyone.
The happy couple....
Grandmom Maro. Kira was getting a little tired of being out at this point, hence the lower lip.
She is thinking, "no more pictures! Take me home!!"
The ladies of the Maro family.
Thanksgiving day morning, I took Kira out to Philly for the parade with Tom's mom and step dad. She really seemed to enjoy herself. A good time had by all.
The proud grammy.
Later that day...we drove over to see Tom's Dad and family. Unfortunately, this was the only picture I took that night. This is Tom's step-mom holding Kira.
The next day, we drove over to my parents house for the Wallin family gathering.
Then, on Saturday we celebrated thanksgiving with the Dehart family. The Dehart's are Tom's step-father's side of the family. Every year they get together at a bowling alley and then meet afterwards at the Dehart house for desert and fellowship.
The Dehart cousins all together for a shot.
Finally, on Sunday, Mom graciously allowed me to use her house to host the end of the season choir party. Family is wonderful isn't it? Can't wait for Christmas to do it all over again! Plus, at Christmas, we will see the Yoders (my mom's side) who haven't seen Kira yet.

I can't believe how many different families you are part of. I'm glad you can at least come to the Yoders- even if only once! Since I don't have such an extended family, I really really really (!) want to see you all. I can't believe how Kira has grown so much, but then that's the way it's supposed to be. Love. Grandma
Wow! That was a busy week. Are you exhausted??
Yes, we are still recovering from all the parties. Kira has been out of sorts the past couple of days.
totally looking forward to seeing Kira, can't wait
