Thanksgiving

The Holidays began with cheeseburgers...and will continue until after the first of the year. A stressed out mother finds that during the Holiday rush, Wendy's is her best friend.



Daddy is always a welcome addition to any family celebration...so...without any further adu..

Welcome to the 2009 Thanksgiving celebration in Akron, OH with some of the Orme family.



Ashley and Kristine make great sister-in-laws that drove with their husbands for HOURS to get here! Was Akron worth it? You bettcha. Just take a look.
