Happy Turkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving! We had a great Thanksgiving with all the works. We had Mom, Larry, Fern, and Carla at our house for Thanksgiving. We cooked for what seemed like days. I successfully messed up the pecan pies but I figure if that's all I messed up, then it was a successful Thanksgiving. You can check out more of our pictures on our Google Picasa page at http://picasaweb.google.com/edandjody/Thanksgiving2008#

Fern and Ed fishing at sunset. Brotherly bonding!

The candid shots of the chefs! This is scary that Mom and I were the head chefs for the big day. Luckily, Ed cooked the turkey.
This is what turkey and a few beers does to Ed.
We scheduled an appointment for family portraits during the holiday week. This is Lou getting ready for the pictures. Stay tuned for those pictures!

The final hair product! How can a little girl have that much hair!?! I'm so jealous.
Lou roasting smores. As the afternoon progressed, her "smore mustache" grew.

The Spartans

It has been brought to my attention that I failed to post a picture of my Halloween Spartan costume. Well, to those of you who actually care to see my poor choices at Halloween, here you go. By the way, Halloween is one of my least favorite holidays because we all look ridiculous the following day. Nevetheless, here is one of our NOT FINER moments. -Ed and Jody, The Spartans

Happy Halloween!

We had a great Halloween, complete with lots of candy and great costumes. Lou was a Southern Belle. The best part was hearing her tell you she was a "Southern Belle". She can't really pronounce it so it comes out with about 6 extra syllables in "southern belle". It's hysterical. Ed and Jody were "Spartans". Ed was the Spartan off of the movie 300 and Jody was a Spartan cheerleader off of the SNL skit.

The prettiest Southern Belle and pumpkin dog!
Off to trick or treat, with Biscuit leading the way.
