Many, many, many pictures from our Thanksgiving adventures!



For Thanksgiving, the Rabus family met in Mountain Home, Arkansas at the Rocking Chair Resort on Norfork Lake. We had such a fun time sharing a cabin, and the cool weather didn't keep us from enjoying the outdoors!! I've included several pictures (the bad part about digital cameras is that there are usually too many good pictures, if that's possible!)


We did lots of eating....




We celebrated Sophie's birthday again (which meant lots of more eating!)...






One of Sophie's new toys is a John Deere tractor (just like Grampka's!) Sophie and Alex took turns pushing each other around!





We did some fishing from a pontoon and the dock by our cabin...












As you may have noticed, I was the only one of the fisherpeople (me, Mike, Laura and Mom) who didn't catch a fish. I did catch a rock on the bottom of the lake, though. I'll let you decide which takes more skill!




Sophie's least favorite part of the vacation (she cried the whole time!)



We also did some hiking...








The Snow family










And we also got to hang out in the cabin...


"Hey Alex, what movie are you watching?"

thank you for all the wonderful pictures! Sophie is SO cute! And I saw a glimpse of Rascal on a chair and Dixie on a hike. And the one with Mike and Sophie at the Navy Pier! It looks like you had a great time-a nice cabin!-and wonderful food.

We miss you-we love you!

You did a great job capturing our trip! Not easy with over 400 wonderful memories! I think Susie's yummy worm lured the fish over to our hooks. You didn't mention someone even got a little swimming in too! brrr... Sophie just goes with the flow. How can that little peanut get any cuter!! Love, Grammy
