On Friday we had our second annual “kid Thanksgiving” at Carrie’s house. The kids determined the menu and cooked all the food. We were served Thanksgiving norms like stuffing and potatoes and gravy, but we also enjoyed the famous Frito salad with ranch dressing, macaroni and cheese, corn, and Paige’s Rocky Road bars. [Off the record, kid food is better.]

Karen and Ben synchronize their weird eyeball routine.
We had a nice family dinner at the Schlesier’s house. Jen did a great job as host, we know a lot of work is needed to plan, cook, serve, and clean a big Thanksgiving dinner for 20. There was even plenty of good food for the veggies.

Karen and I spent the afternoon at the ‘07 Turkey-free Thanksgiving. Guest speaker Erin E. Williams (HSUS, and author of Why Animals Matter) gave a well prepared speech on the importance of a California ballot initiative intended to reduce farm animal cruelty. Bryan Pease, Kath Rogers and the Animal Protection and Rescue League (APRL) hosted the event and all proceeds benefited the initiative campaign. Follow the light for more pictures.
