Thanksgiving at Jacques'

All the Coquerels in the US met at Jacques and Claire's for Thanksgiving this past Thursday.
After sitting around and sharing with each other, we had a nice Thanksgiving dinner meal.
Sylvain and Jean-Sam wanted to get a soccer game going but the card players got their way and we ended up playing cards (first). I even taught some people how to play Rook. Emmanuel and William liked it. They are the ones who learned to play.
Jean-Luc taught a new game too: KuhHandel, a German card game with bidding and auctioning.
The day went by so quickly we didn't have time to do everything we wanted to do such as playing soccer and basketball after the card games then go for a walk in the park, and then have some more desert, tea and coffee while listening to the young Coquerels who are becoming piano virtuosos. Well, I guess there is a next time.
