Thanksgiving in the desert

The Blakes and Herbers living in Arizona have celebrated Thanksgiving together for nearly 30 years.  What used to be two couples and 4 singles has grown to 28 people with marriages, children and a bunch more Herbers moving to Arizona.  As is normal, various friends also joined the group bringing our number this year to 34, if I counted right.  Callie had us out to her new home located miles into the desert. She has a fantastic veiw of Four Peaks out her front window and an unobstructed view of desert.  It was a little chilly, but at least half of us ate outdoors in the sunshine.  For you Herber/Blake family members that don't live in Arizona, here are a few photos of the some of the rest of the family...wish you had been with us!
