This year we decided to do something completely different. Since our friends the Moores and the Mahoney-Schaefers were all staying in town and also up for a little holiday variety, we decided to rent a cabin up at Hyak and have Thanksgiving there. Amy found us a sweet place big enough for all three families on VRBO about 45 minutes from Seattle. It was great! There was just enough snow on the ground for sledding, but not enough for the nearby ski resorts to open, so there not too many people up there for the holiday. We had a great time cooking, playing, chatting, and playing Scrabble after all of the kiddos were zonked out. The game got really interesting when the two scientists (Chris and Amy) started talking about, ah, unorthodox methods of reproduction used by marine invertebrates. We haven't had that many belly laughs in a long time. I bet we'll do this again next year.
