Great friends. Great food. Great wine. All the ingredients necessary for another successful "Ciwcle" Thanksgiving party.

This Halloween was all about the husband Peyton as it was her first year to actually go out trick or treating. We only went to a few homes but I was so proud of my girl-she marched right up to every door, exclaimed "Chee Chee" ("trick or treat") and helped herself to the bowl of candy.
