For a few years now my family has had Thanksgiving early, and called it the Harvest Dinner. This year it fell during our younger kids fall break and was as fun as ever, though we were sad to be missing Trisa and Tia, and other family members who couldn't make the trip fit into their busy schedules.
The Harvest Dinner was held at my sister Jenny's house and, this time, I made sure to take pictures of some of the fun. Here are a few for your viewing pleasure.

| Charlie, Miles, and Bryce playing a game. |
 |
| My brother-in law -- Grandpa Chris -- with Lorien and Lorien's Aunt Anika |
 |
| My sister -- Grandma Tina -- with Lorien. Sister-in-law Stephanie is there too. Lorien has lots of admirers. |
 |
| Lauren, Emma, Stephen, Kayli, and Connor -- also playing a game. |
 |
| Our beautiful hostess Jenny with our tasty turkey. |
 |
| Our manly host Jeff carving the turkey. |
 |
| My nephew Bryce, his wife Katherine, and their beautiful Lorien (who you can't see very well) |
 |
| Jenny and Mom working at the sink. |
 |
| Brian, trying to protect his family by sleeping before he had to drive them home. |
 |
| Noah and Jake -- two good cousin buddies. |
The only complaint I have about the Harvest Dinner is that it seemed to go by too fast and pretty soon I had to say goodbye to all of these good people (along with the ones who managed to avoid my camera) that I love so much.
