Thanksgiving 2008

It's the most wonderful time of the year. Between Thanksgiving and New Year's, does it really get any better? Joy and I spent Thanksgiving this year with my parents, sister Jess, and brother-in-law Tim in north-central Ohio. AND...yes AND...we met our new nephew, Caleb Andrew!!! Now, people usually go on and on about how cute and funny and unique and...yawn...newborns are, but there can't be much better in life than being an uncle, and yes, this baby really is cute, funny, and unique. My brother, Nate, and his wife, Jessica, who live in the Philippines, had little Elijah this summer, and now there's two nephews! (And, indeed, there shall be four come spring when Joy's brother's wife has twins...).

Our Thanksgiving was the usual mix of sleeping and feedings, so the newborn fit right in with our family traditions already. And between the baby's feedings and my own, I think we got along quite well. Here are some pictures of our weekend for you to enjoy...
