Thanksgiving Pictures from Michigan

We had a great Thanksgiving break, although we missed being with family. We spent a lot of time together, so it will be hard to go back to classes. Megan made her first turkey, which was very tasty. We went to a dog show that was on campus. There were over 140 breeds of dogs there. The St. Bernard ("Buddy") was about 170 pounds at 2 years old! We got our first snow of the season the day before Thanksgiving which made it very pretty outside. The snow made us want to start decorating for Christmas. We also went to the temple in Detroit. We have many things for which to be thankful.

Thanksgiving at Morro Bay

The Ferguson, Finlay and Crump families all met up at Morro Bay this year for the annual Thanksgiving weekend. There was the usual walk on the beach, watching the huge waves break over the Rock and day-after-Thanksgiving shopping and visit with Santa Claus. Ian got to see two of the cousins, Nene and Jeannie, that he hadn't seen in 2 1/2 years. Maybe next year we will have even more family members there. We truly have a lot to be thanksful for.

Michigan Trip

Here is a slide show of the trip to the Lake Michigan shore. We had a great time seeing family and exploring the place we now call home.

What's in a name?

Megan and I thought this site was really neat. It tells you how popular a baby name was in any year. Just type in the name and see what the trend is. James is going down hill pretty fast, but Maximus is coming on strong. Click here to see about your name!
