Superstork 2017

Thanksgiving, 2017

We started off the day at Steve and Lynn's lovely abode in Escondido.

(Click here to go to photos from Tom and Patty's)

We were joined by Frank and Ashley

And here is a selfie with Sara

Sara picked up GPV, Grandpa Vierling, Lorri and Lynn's Dad

Steak and eggs for brunch!

... and potatoes

We ate inside as it was a little warm outside.

Also, since Ash, Frank and Sara are going to Ireland for Christmas, we had an early Christmas gift-giving event.

Steve looks like he had something up his sleeve.

It was to be a day of selfies. We brought our selfie stick from Italy, I mean, the one we bought in Italy a few years ago. It still works!

Lighting is always a problem

Not too bad.

See what I mean about lighting?

After we left the Ever's house we checked in to our hotel and then headed over to Tom and Patty's place in Rancho Bernardo!

The Lovin' Scuzzins: Ashley, Katie, Jenny, Sara, Chris, Ryan, Nick, and Trevor

And again. Cute kids. Well, they used to be; now they're cute adults.

Add Frank, Ryan Canavan (RC), Hailey, Rachel and Kim to the mix and that spells trouble.

What a crowd!

Wait, look this way.

No, look that way.

The cousins with Nani, Tom and Pam's mom.

Check your phones. Make sure you got the photo. Geez, remember when we had to wait to get the roll developed and printed to see our photos? I don't miss those days.

Looks good, Tommy!

The chefs at work - stand back!

Lots of great food!

30 or so happy family and friends

We are lucky to be part of such a great bunch of people

Irish I had some Irish Coffee! We did, thanks to RC and Frank - authentic Irish Coffee! Made by Irishmen!

Speaking of which, that's RC's dad Kieran.

and RC's mom, Marcella with soon-to-be-mom, Kim

They came all the way from Northern Ireland for Thanksgiving at T&P's

Let the dancing begin!

Nani is so happy!

So is Jenny.

Tom's sister Pam and her boyfriend Skip. And Ryan.

Selfie time with Chris.

And with Kim, Patty, Jenny, Lorri and Steve

Steve's brother John. (He's also Patty's and Suzy's brother, and Mike's brother too, but Mike couldn't make it this year)

Ryan and me

Jack, Rachel and Kim

Great photo, Ryan, you even got the girls on the couch!

Peace, Love, Rock 'n' roll, and Sara

What's up with no smile, Sara?

Tom and Pam, siblings.

with Skip too. I warned you about selfies!

I need to learn to keep my right hand a little lower and out of the photo.

Me and Nick

Trevor sneaking up behind us...

and Frank too. They look bad-ass, right?

That's better
