A [Classified] Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving at the home of our friends, the [redacted by Homeland Security]s. They welcomed us into their home in [a classified location].

Seriously, Greg G. is my old roommate from USC; he and his wife Linda now live in Chula Vista with their three kids, Monique (age 11), Ryan (7) and Caitlin (3). He is a Public Affairs Officer for the US Navy, hence the 'secrecy'. Our hosts prepared not one but two turkeys (one roasted, one deep-fried), and put out a tremendous spread of food.

Tessie loved the food, but needs to work on her table manners:


The Gs made us part of their family for a few days; Monique kicked my butt at PlayStation Quidditch, Ryan kicked my butt at Wallball on their backyard sport court, and Caitlin didn't kick my butt at anything, but she was probably just being polite.

Tessie works her magic on the gruff military man:

Tessie really enjoyed having other kids around to play with. We're looking forward to spending more time with the Gs, but probably won't be able to until the new year.
