Love the one you're with

Leah with cousins Michael and Melodie.

Brian and Kristin help Leah in the kitchen.

Thanksgiving we had a leisurely stay with Brian's sister Leah. All kids were in attendance except Sarah, who stayed in Portland to do homework. Where are her priorities? It was great though; Brian's two cousins (and kids) and his aunt Merrilyn and uncle Don paid a visit so it was quite a family fest, without all the cooking and cleaning (for me).
Yesss!!

This brilliant child (he was trying to show me how to use my camera correctly), who will, I'm sure, run a small country some day or discover a cure for dull people, is Toby. Toe, as his parents -- our friends Jason and Brandy -- call him. We got to spend a few precious hours with him during a quick trip to the beach in October (our 6th anniversary, yeah!!).
It was amazing. He's a genius and pretty damn cute, too.
