Thanksgiving

Every other year we go down to Jim and Susan’s house in Vegas for the Polley Thanksgiving. It was another great reunion to go down in the books! DSC_3066

I wish I would have gotten a picture of everyone there. There were sure a lot of us! I think almost 60!DSC_3077

Kids table set up in their office . . . . they were just setting up tables wherever they could fit one!photo 1

So many cups! And beds in the garage for the teenagers and singles.photo 2   photo 3

The Polley’s house was packed, so we actually stayed at Ashley and Spencer’s house since they are down in Vegas for dental school. They went to Spencer’s parents for Thanksgiving, so we overlapped them for one night, but it was so nice of them to let us stay there while they were gone! It was fun seeing their cute house.photo 4
