Party Time!!

The Sunday after Thanksgiving, we went up to Sonoma for a combo 50th birthday party (for Keith's aunt, Mary) and the annual family cookie exchange. There was actually a third celebration earlier in the day, a bridal shower for Keith's cousin, Shana, but we didn't attend that party. We got stuck at Keith's work while he took care of some last-minute work headaches (yay for spending an hour in a parked truck with two angry little kids!!), so I was glad to make it to the parties only *slightly* late. We all had a great time catching up with family, and the girls loved having free reign of the cookie table. As an added bonus, even though it was the end of November, it was a warm 75 degrees....completely new territory for this Oregon native!!
