Thanksgiving 2009

For the third year of this new tradition, my parents spent over a week in California for Thanksgiving. This year they started in LA visiting Betsy, Evan and Lauren then drove north to San Francisco. After a two-night trip to Lake Tahoe, they returned to San Francisco for the big meal.

Matt was assigned the turkey carving role. Dad observed and coached, trying to figure out how to coach a lefty.

Sunapee dutifully sniffed the feast, didn't touch anything, then kept Mom's feet warm under the table while we dined.
