O tannenbaum, O tannenbaum






O, Tannenbaum O, Tannenbaum...where are you? The traditional day after Thanksgiving expedition out into the land to find the tree was a smashing success! or mabe a charlie brown success? Either way, spirits were high. Uncle Randy led the way showing Colin how to sled down the clif, Dad was the maestro guiding us through his "spread" to the perfect trees. and Bridger kept telling us,"by the road, there is the perfect tree...I saw it!"

Thanksgiving Gala 2009





Oh, what a Thanksgiving it was! The Robertshaw Clan converged at the homestead and every daughter, son in law, and grandson was present! The best part was the chaos, according to Jake, and the sword-fighting cousins. Colin and Bridger cemented their "bestfriend" status, and the rest of us got to occasionally talk to each other between mushing on our nephews. Colin is a bolt of energy, while Gus has all the animal sounds down cold. Jericho made his debut as he Kareoked with Nona. Someone found some old whitney houston tapes for the karoeke machine...that was the entertainment. Thank you Pop and Nona for an amazing first Thanksgiving with as a family of four!
