Thanksgiving in Richfield

Jane (Andy's girl friend) hosted Thanksgiving dinner at her house in Richfield - a really cool old Pioneer house. (You know it's old and authentic architecture since it was designed for two front doors. but now conveniently outfitted with a chrome box driven big screen TV, updated kitchen and handy gas fire place.) Janell, Mike and Evie (along with Jewels and Roderick) came down from Park City and Andy (and Miley) from Ephraim. Jane's mother Laura and her brothers Morgan and Joey came down from Salt Lake. Caleb and Annika came up Thursday night.

Here's the dinner picture (apologies to Evie, but no one would "pose" for the picture and in the others Andy was completely hidden behind Jane).

It was a great dinner with all the traditional foods (plus dutch oven potatoes cooked in a pit behind the house).

I'm not sure Andy fully appreciated that carving the Turkey is something of a performance art. Below we are all getting ready to photograph the effort. Not to worry, we all had plenty of nicely cut pieces of Turkey.

What you don't see in the pictures are the four dogs also there for Thanksgiving (Buddy, Jewels, Roderick and Miley), but frankly apart from taking them on some walks, they were hardly noticed - they each just found a comfy place for a long nap.
