Here we go again!

We had a lovely Thanksgiving in Madison with the whole clan in attendance! We had a long visit (9 days!) that began the weekend before with Jonathan's Bachelor Party. The guys all went to Brian's house for Italian Beef, snacks and drinks then off to play hockey! This I do wish I could have been there to see, Jonathan and his friends all played hockey in their younger days but Brian and Bryan...not so much.

Jonathan got his hands on my camera and took a few pictures of himself prior to going out! He put them on my camera so they are fair game!

After all those fun and games we had the whole week to hang out (less those who had to work).
Joseph trying as hard as he can to wait for Papa to get treat ready! Papa was one of those who had the week off, so we all got special treat every night! Here Papa is making molasses shakes for everyone!

Mike, Jen and Gwendolyn came in early in the week as well and we had a nice little Birthday celebration for her.
Jen opening her gifts.
Papa just loves to make dessert for those who will enjoy it, chocolate pound cake with fresh berries and fresh whipped cream-Joseph ate all of mine!

Pictures from the week.
Jonathan a cup of coffee into his day.

Benjamin, post hair cut!

The grand kids. Olivia (3), Gwendolyn (3), Eileen (5), Joseph (1.5)

Flower girl practice, we had the girls practice at home a few times so they would know just what to do!

I love this picture of Gwendolyn and her pumpkin, so serious!

When I get a chance I will add pictures from the rehearsal and wedding, blogger is being funky right now. I can't get it to add pictures and I have to get Olivia to school so I don't have time to wait for it to get it's act together right now.
