Happy Thanksgiving!





What a fun day for the fam. Eden and Dan hosted...everyone contributed their specialty: I made pumpkin and chocolate pies, a pumpkin cheesecake, a turkey, Aunt Lura's pineapple rings with a dollop of cream cheese and pecan mixture in the hole; Christa made turkey, stuffing and gravy; Missy made mashed potatoes and homemade cranberry sauce; Eden made her pear and prosciutto salad, special yams, rolls, and ham. DELISH! We ate, drank and were very merry! The kids all wanted to feed Willy the calf after dinner (probably next year he WILL be dinner!) and the adults played Apples to Apples, resulting in much hilarity!

Our plan for Willy is to sell him at 350lbs (thus avoiding knowing his OUTCOME)put the money earned in a mutual fund, hopefully earning more interest than present...and then divide the money between the children when it comes time for college...that's just me talking though...I'm still a city slicker with a tender heart! He could be DINNER...oh no!
Thanksgiving was so fun! There is nothing so comfortable as being with family...and laughing heartily at everyone's silly jokes, quirky personalities, and goofy mannerisms...(CRAZY AS A LOON)I wasn't even there but it is still funny and so fitting after playing Apples to Apples...we were all about that CRAZY...probably all that bubbly consumption! Ha Ha!
