Tennessee Thanksgiving

Welcome.
You'll find warmth just through the farmhouse door.

Uncle Jimmy's weathered barn still stands tall.

Cousin Nick was on hand to instruct the boys
on how to best play the piano bang on the piano.

What would a big family gathering be without
the little ones contributing their "joyful noise"?

One of two bountiful Thanksgiving dinners.
Over two days we managed to gather with
all of the professor's extended family.

When asked, the professor was willing to give pointers.

Aunt JoEllen's crystal fruit sparkled at dusk.

Thanksgiving puppy love.
Tukes greets Brodie.

More Thanksgiving puppy love.
Meet Albert.

One of Aunt Connie's laying hens.

Uncle Jimmy and Boo gathered eggs.

This cocky, golden rooster is mean.
He chased Aunt Connie out of the coop one day.

Reminiscing.

A quiet moment with Grandaddy.

Thank you, Mama and Daddy,
for hosting us when we breezed through town.
