We had a nice, quiet family thanksgiving at home with G'ma and G'pa "W" coming to share the day with us. My day started at 5 am to the sound of a rude alarm clock.
Keri helped me put the inserts into the Thanksgiving newspaper - the biggest of the whole year, each paper weighing about 3 pounds! Instead of doing the entire route in one load like last year, I swallowed my pride and split it into two more manageable trips, and was done by 6:30. After a post-paper route nap, I spent the day watching a little football, doing various honey-do's, helping some in the kitchen, and hanging out with the fam. Keri did a great job with a very moist turkey
and her soon to be famous challalalalah bread masterpiece. Grandma helped with the trimmings, including her traditional stuffing.
During the wonderful feast, we paused to share with each other some of the things for which we are so grateful. OooPah! After dinner many of us were in need of a nap -
including Clover!
I finished up the day hanging some colorful lights on the house. A fitting end to a Happy Thanksgiving!
