Thanksgiving 2015 - Friendsgiving

This Thanksgiving, since family couldn't come to CA to join us, we decided on a "Friendsgiving" in Menlo Park with friends that are just like family.  

Our "thankful" tree

Harrison loved Vivi and took every chance he could get to get close to her.

Our shopping helpers

Dinner served easy clean-up style - on the kitchen floor

A necessity for Thanksgiving weekend

Like Harrison, I took every opportunity I could to snuggle up to this one too.
