Hello Parents and happy thanksgiving, we have a lot to be thankful for. Such as grilled cheese sandwiches and students that come early to help me set up a grain bin for a woodshed! We had a great time (even after I made a mistake and we had to take the second level off move it and put it back on. 
Alex and Sophie were there early and were a little stingy letting others use the impact drivers. 



It got dark so we had people holding lights and Braden's job was to supervise in his shorts in the cold. 


Here is the help, John is hiding behind the door not happy cause we forced him in the picture while he was still working. 

Here are 3 trouble makers, I think Braden is in awe of something Fallen (spelling?) is doing. 

I title this one 
"Dan with the heck are you doing! can't you see I am busy! go do dishes or something!" 
Maddie in the background is also in an interesting pose? Jamie is in mid bite. 
I am really good at catching people in poses they themselves don't appreciate. 

Grain Bin helper Jerry, his name is not Jeremy just so you know. He said that only people with dementia call him that.... at least I think that is Jerry it's all so foggy in my brain. 

John the grain bin builder, with a rather pleased face. Maybe he just caught a glimpse of the tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches?
A terrible quality picture of some wonderful quality ladies. My phone camera doesn't seem to work part of the time, it could be all the smudges on the lens. 




So the soup and sandwiches were a big hit, We made them make their own sandwiches and grill them. This caused a lot of smoke in the house so we had to open windows. 

Chewy waiting for snacks, Chewie was a bad dog this last weekend and got sprayed by a skunk. So we gave him a peroxide bath yesterday, now he is fluffy like a poodle, and he is mad at me. 

I think this picture speaks really for itself. It would make a good meme. which would be the better caption?
1) Dan thanks so much to you and your lovely wife for making me dinner
2) Dan you are awesome, keep up the good blog!
    3) ..............

Maybe you guys can come up with a good meme?  
Below is a meme that Mara came up with cause I touched a nerve by dissing AnnE of green goblets.

  Hello parents! Sorry I am so slow with this. This last week we had Mediterranean food, whatever that means. It was chicken.  I get tired of the kids all sitting in their little groups, so I set up tables based on birth month. I would have thought that they would be evenly dispersed but no, I guess it makes sense that us parents like to cuddle in the Fall-winter. (don't tell my wife I wrote that).   Below is the July August table, with the most people.  Aleksey Preening. The above pictures you can tell that I need to clean my camera lens.  a good shot of Braden, also Micha in the background doing? Ahh Payton sporting the Frog and Toad shirt.  Cheer up you two! Haha, she makes me smile. I call this face "jack o lantern eyebrows" Here is the September-October table Nutter got the hammock. I think it made the meal more Mediterranean for him! Here is the November-December birthdays way out in the yard.  May - June table! Payton was all alone at ...

Welcome back parents! It's a new year and new dinners! we served breakfast for dinner (one of our favorites) to about 50 kids, it was really fun to have them back. I was sick last week with the COVID so we had to wait. We have the older crowd that come and help cook, yes Jamie did actually wash some dishes this time.  Nathan and Alexa came early to help cook and decorate.  Eric and Anna are helping again this year, Eric brought a whole pile of sausages.  Nice innocent face Grace, you're not fooling anyone.  Here is Braden, better known as "pinky" Ahh Micha, Can you believe this guy will be influencing the corporate world next semester? Here are the "Strong Western Men", They lead a study in West hall for the strong complex (other dorms) Jason Nutter or "the nutter kid" as I have always called him.  Eliza with the surprise gravy face.  Mara with the bored gravy face. Here is Ryn, the college students are getting younger.  Anna carrying several plate...

 Hello parents of the coolest college kids on campus, (that is alliteration) don't be impressed, I thought that alliteration started with an "I".  This week we had taco salad and chocolate cake. In Chinese you would call it qio-ke-la dan gao. If your impressed that I know that, I can also say "ice cream" in like 5 languages, but it doesn't mean I can spell in my own language.  John Trimmer on the left was suspiciously watching over the cake.  my beautiful bride, not sure what she is doing. I will probably get in trouble for this picture. I thought you parents would want to see who cooks for your kids. It's a dramatic pose. Angie once got an award for a dramatic presentation. She is a natural at it. Just image that she is saying: "Oh Dan, I am exceedingly obliged to you for capturing my likeness! You possess such a wonderful artistic sensibility, truly you do. I dare say you could rival any photographer in all of Avonlea - nay, in all of Prince Edwar...
