Waken Family: December 2010

Zoo Lights

We took the family to see the Zoo Lights at the Denver Zoo. Our whole family was there. It is so much fun to spend time together as a family.

Thankgiving 2010 was at the Wakens house this year. We had a large group over and had a really good time. My job for the day was to set the table. Phill and Amanda and Aunt Jody did all the cooking. David Haley came into town and spent the holiday with us. Lets see we had our family, Phill, Diane, Phillip & Avery( Jenny had to work we missed you Jenny), Amanda, Megan and Brandon and Caleb, Connie, then the Lee family Paul, Jody, Sarah & Justin, Lindsey and David Haley. That is quite a nice group. After dinner we went over to Grandma and Grandpa Wakens house to visit. We have had a wonderful year with much to be Thankful for especially Family.

We had so many people we had to set up 2 tables, one in the Living Room and one in the Kitchen. The kids were all fighting to eat in the kitchen. Go figure.

Lindsey, Connie, Sarah, Justin got to eat in the Kitchen.

The rest of us had to eat in the Living Room

Visiting at Grandpa and Grandma Wakens House.

Halloween

Halloween this year was fun at our house. We carved Sesame Street pumpkins, which you will see below. I think they are really cute. We also had Trunk or Treat at church. Just as we started dinner the electricity went off and was out for about 20 minutes. It finally came back on and we had a really fun evening. Lots of good food, visiting and friends. I put lots of pictures below.
