Thanksgiving 2013

Anna and her family drove from Reno, arriving the day before Thanksgiving; Rob flew in Thursday morning. Courtney's Utah Reception was scheduled for the weekend, so the extended Hastings family was in town as well. Meagan's mom was also in town and all gathered at our house for supper on Wednesday. Thursday morning there was a pre-dinner  mini turkey bowl in the park. Dinner was a bit different (imagine that!). At Katy Greendoor's invitation, we met with some of her family and the Taylor cousins who were in town at the Startup Building. The logistics were dicey, but the space was large and all had a good time. That night we had a walk in the dark to ward off the effects of overeating and the kids played canasta until the wee hours.

 In the end all four Hastings kids were on her lap
