Thanksgiving!

We had such a good time in Philadelphia last year that we decided to go again this year!  

Everyone helped with the cooking.....


Or the eating!!

Jeff joined us too...but I think he was taking all the pictures!



On Friday, instead of shopping we headed down to Delaware (the Wilmington area) to a Dupont mansion called "Nemours".  It was gorgeous!  And we were back in our old stomping grounds from when we lived in Maryland!





Still no Jeff....he's taking the pictures once again!



 Saturday we spent some time in downtown Philly.  We finally got to tour the Masonic Temple.  It was also very beautiful!  Stained glass, and each room was decorated in a different style-Greek, Egyptian, etc.  We also went to the German Christmas Market, and the other market we like to go to downtown whose name I have forgotten!  I'll have to update that info!  We had the best doughnuts there that I have ever had in my entire life!  No joke!!!







And there was time for relaxing, and finally a picture of Jeff-proof he actually came!





 

Ok these pictures are a little mixed up.  The outside ones with all the statues are Nemours, and the inside pictures are of the Masonic Temple.













Moses and the burning bush!






Even the ceilings were incredible!



A closing shot of Nemours!
