Lalliss Christmas Dinner in October

My brother Scott was able to visit from Afghanistan last week. Since he will be gone during the holidays, we had our adult Christmas dinner in October. It was held at Marie Callendar's (which was nice, because it also happened to be pie month there). This dinner was the 1st time we have had everyone together (without any kids to distract us). Monique was able to obtain an original painting titled "Let Freedom Ring" that was signed by the author. It was the perfect present for Scott and Kelly, and a little emotional for all of us knowing how much Scott and Kelly have sacrificed during this time of his deployment.
Here's a few pictures of our dinner. Once I learn how to photoshop, I plan to make a good picture with everyone's eyes open and everyone smiling.
