Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!!

I started my day with my own little turkey trot 5k and then a giant cup of coffee.  We tried to make beignets but they weren’t good.  HA!  So, we settled for bacon and some Monopoly Deal for breakfast.

I didn’t make any turkey today, but I did sing this song until the boys were begging me to stop.  It reminds me so much of Daddy-O.  He still reads “the funny papers” and clips out comics that remind him of me or my family.  I have a stack of these treasures, which he always dates and sometimes changes the names on or adds his own commentary to.

Honey’s mom had us over for a delicious feast!!  It was a lovely afternoon with Honey’s side of the family.  We ate, drank and laughed… a lot!  And then we all retreated to our homes for the requisite turkey day nap, the hallmark of a good Thanksgiving meal.

Most of all, I’m feeling extra thankful for these three boys today.  <3

I hope that you and yours had a wonderful day.  I know that today kicks off a season that is incredibly joyful for so many, but also hard for a lot of others.  I’m thinking of ALL of you today.
