Thanksgiving Martin Photo Shoot

 

Ricki met a girl in a thrift store about a month before Thanksgiving. They started talking and the girl had just recently moved to Oklahoma City and was a professional photographer.  Ricki asked her about taking family pictures and the girl said sure just call.  Ricki called her after talking to me and arranged for her to come when everyone was here for Thanksgiving. 

We had Thanksgiving at our clubhouse and the photographer arrived after we had eaten and bought some props (a bench and old suitcases). Ricki and I brought our pumpkins.  These are the pictures that came out of the photo shoot.  They are great!!

If you know me at all you know that pictures are treasures to me.  I love these new ones and so glad Ricki got this arranged. I had a great time helping to get the photo shoot set up outside the clubhouse. The weather was actually pretty nice for November. But by the time we were ready, the sun had gone behind the building and it was very windy and cool as you can see in these pictures. Mother was freezing and several others complained the whole time but they suffered through it and I would just like to say thank you to them.  I bet they are glad we got these done.

Quite a few of our family wasn’t able to be with us this year and we missed them.  It is very hard to get everyone here at the same time.  Hopefully we will be able to get quite a few of them to come to Mangum for the Martin Reunion, April 20,21 & 22 during the big Rattlesnake Hunt this year.
