Thanks for Thanksgiving

I love Thanksgiving because it is usually the only time I get to see a lot of my extended family. The "Wynkoop" side (Thorpes) treat it as our annual Family Reunion. There are 3 Thorpes, my grandmother Judy Wynkoop is the youngest. She has 2 brothers Wix & Jack. Wix has 5 kids and Jack has 3 and Judy has 5 so you can imagine how many grand-kids and great-grand-kids these 3 Thorpes have. This year we had a rather small gathering - only 33 were able to make it to Houston ranging in ages 2 months to over 80 years old. Usually there are around 40 to 45 that make it each year with each of those years being a different make up of the family members. Each of the 3 Thorpe children (who are all over 80 years old) has over 25 when you count kids, spouses, grand-kids, & great-grand-kids.

THANKS Cindy for hosting Thanksgiving at your home. THANKS to all who put us up in your homes for the night. THANKS to all who brought such wonderful food. THANKS to all for the much needed fellowship. I love you all!!!

I took several pictures but decided to only add this one below. Pappy and the young kids had a great time playing card games. Thanks Pappy!!!
