The Olsen Thanksgiving - 2009

We had a wonderful time with my inlaws on Thanksgiving Day. It was a gorgeous day, in the 80's in Orange County, CA, and my sister-in-law made the most delicious organic Thanksgiving feast. I was so touched by the special care and effort she put into the meal so that I could still eat organic while away from home...truly amazing. Cooper had a wonderful time tool, especially when his cousin, Kimberly, broke out her guitar. She was so sweet and let Cooper play it too and he sure was thrilled with himself and the music they were making. We truly are blessed to have had such a wonderful family and to have enjoyed such a fabulous day with them. Below are some pictures.
