Catching up a little on 2012 (Thanksgiving)

I'm not going to run down my resolutions for 2013...  you can find them right here..  I love this website - whenever I check in, there seems to be something timely that speaks just to me.  You can also find them on my bloglist:  Marc and Angel Hack Life.

So...  I guess before I plunge on into the year, I need to do a little catching up - but I'm not going to go back too far.  Just to Thanksgiving.

Matt and Dawon came for Thanksgiving from Korea.  It was wonderful to see them again and we miss them so much when they're gone...  Dawon made us a special "Korean Thanksgiving Meal" which was glass noodles with peppers and these little meat patties, like pork meatloaf almost.  So delicious!!!

One of the brothers (Matt?) came up with the idea to do family photo with a twist.  We only get everyone together every 8-10 years or so, and when we do, it's family portrait time!  This time, we all dressed up as superheroes/villains!  Mom and Dad sat that particular one out.

Andy and Angi working in the kitchen... in costume!  Mom was just happy to have all her kids around - and Zach reignited his love of bows and arrows as Green Arrow.

It was a VERY good Thanksgiving - and we have lots to be thankful for.

I am relieved to know that you had a portrait made without costumes!

Awesome! Love it. The family portrait is lovely. I however think the costume idea is fantastic, what great memories for the family album. Love the one with Batman running. Looks like a great time was had by all. xox
