The day after Turkey Day . . .

In the past, we have tried to get the family together for a reunion of sorts around this time of year since many of the relatives who live out of state come in to visit. This year, we had our gathering at the nursing home where mom lives. They have an activity room there, which is the perfect solution for us. We also celebrated her 88th birthday...again.
(Take a close look at mom's perfectly manicured nails - compliments of the nursing home staff!)

After the afternoon with the family, Jacquie and Steve & I cheered on Dave & Dan as they participated in a pick-up soccer game at the big dome...

After two hours, the boys were stiff & sore and ready for the hot tub!
