My brother Brian and his family traditionally visit us the Saturday after Thanksgiving, on their way back to Michigan from Terre Haute, where they spend Turkey Day. Here is the group - Brian, Lorrie, and girls Lindsay and Megan (and Mom, of course), mixed in with us.
Along with the people, we had a reunion of dogs - and when they get together they always play cards. At the table you see (from l to r) Danny "Dangling Ace" McAlpine, Oscar "I'll See You And Raise You " McAlpine, and Barkley "What Are These Things On The Table?" McAlpine. We really were trying to recreate the famous "Dogs Playing Poker" picture, but our dogs are not that high-functioning - they kept dropping the cards.
The last photo shows Oscar, mom's dog, with his nifty haircut. Brian and sister Karyn bought Oscar for Mom for Christmas a few years ago. Oscar is a Giant Miniature Schnauzer - a very rare breed.

Nice to see photos of the fam! Thought of you guys a lot recently when the "Milford, Ohio" mug you gave my mom took a turn as my coffee mug of the week. Have a joyous Christmas, look for a card postmarked El Paso sometime in the coming weeks.
