Thanksgiving!

The meals over; the pots and pans are scrubbed. The carcus is sitting in a roaster waiting for a burial fitting the mighty. The leftovers are few! They were packed up by some and taken home for future enjoyment or to become scientific experiments months from now when their discovered in the refrigerator. Things went smoothly. There was a small panic early when I worried that the turkey might not get done as quick as I thought but everything came together nicely. I got the 20 pounds of potatoes mashed just prior to the last latecomers' arrival. Feasting continued the whole afternoon and well into the night. The dishwasher is running for the third time! No more will be done tonight!

We found out we're to be great grandparents again. A little boy is due in early January. The family grows! Our 3 year old great granddaughter kept us entertained by running and jumping on the furniture. Not a good thing!

Just thrilled to know that Christmas is right around the corner and no preparations are in place. It's hard to get in the mood when the temps have been in the high 60's to low 70's. Cooling off now but not enough for snow and that's what's needed.

Great day with family and it was wonderful having them with us!!
