Thanksgiving

We had a great time at the Night Harbor clubhouse this Thanksgiving. Leah and Tommy came down but we really missed seeing the rest of the charbonneaus. Happy thanksgiving.

Azarigian Thanksgiving

Here is a peek at our Thanksgiving fun and games...

Thanksgiving- my house

We had oysters roasted/steamed on the grill by Granddaddy and Sammy- and shrimp and grits by Michelle and Charlie for our Rogers Thanksgiving this year. The best Shrimp and grits I have ever had- made by a yankee! they used corn meal instead of grits- and lots of cream and butter. It was YUMMY and a wonderful time. Michelle is in agony in the one pic because I failed to mention the horseradish for the oysters was extra spicy- SORRY Michelle. Dad bought enough oysters for that day and for me to have another oyster roast later onin the week- thanks dad :)

Going to the Dogs

I couldn't resist adding some pics of the darlingest dogs around.... Marley is all smiles as she tries to get up the slide... Raleigh is Kimbrough's cute little corgi...Carrot chilaxing- Mom's pack and my dogs last summer on her porch... and battle of the cuteness- who will it be, Leah or Grandmother's pup Willy???? Ok Willy is cutest, leah wins hands down here for sweetest, most compassionate, caring, smartest , most beautiful...

Horsing Around

This is a bit out of order- but here are some pics of our lovely time at Uncle Tom's cabin. The day made me a big time believer in helmets as I was apparently sending May the horse mixed signals during our ride.. My mouth screamed "whoah" and my arms pulled hard on the reigns- but my legs and body language said- "giddy up and go". So I got thrown off ( for the second time) and hit my head really hard- giant loud thump. Fortunately, Kimbrough made me wear a helmet- and no one got any video of the scene... Thankfully Brenda and Kimbrough were able to analyze my problem (when they pulled themselves off the ground from laughing) and I could finally stop feeling like I was possessed with inner demons that made the horse crazy whenever I jumped on....

REI

Kimbrough, Leah, and Tommy are all working at a sporting goods store in Asheville... Here are some grand opening pics :)

Dad, Charlie, and the boys traveled to Chapel Hill this weekend to see the UNC play basketball! They won their game and they all had a great time. Here are some pics of Gfunk and Wade in their UNC attire.

Wade's friends

Some new and old buds of Wade's... Ben does the best job of keeping it real of all these characters.

Myrtle Beach days

My bud Debbie and I were fortunate to attend the South Carolina Ed Tech convention again this year. It is a wonderful conference and we had a great time as usual. The theme was "Rock on" and we rocked it with some new friends in the evening... Wade came with and I enjoyed spending some alone time together on the coast with him in his parents' beautiful condo.

Chili cook-off 5 points 08

The Chili cookoff was followed by a walk over to the blues festival. Poor garrett had just had four baby teeth extracted 2 days earlier so he could hardly eat much- nor could I as the veggie chilis were sold out earliest.
