Happy Thanksgiving!!
Well, Lilly got to celebrate her first Thanksgiving, and I think she really enjoyed it. We started the day with a Turkey Trot with some locals. For years now, a group has been meeting to run at 7:30am on Thanksgiving Day with everyone having to bring canned goods to donate to our local food bank. I think this morning there were 20+ people up bright and early to run...even though it was only 30 degrees. Then we showered up and headed to my folks house for an "all-american" breakfast with bacon, and eggs. It was super good!! Then it was home to get ready for Thanksgiving dinner...fried turkey, homemade cranberry sauce (thanks mom), a pecan green bean casserole, these sweet potato cups, and of course pie both pumpkin, and pecan (thanks for those too mom). It was really good food, and really great company. Then we completed the night with movie, Fred Claus, and reading Aunt Ann's bibles (the sale fliers) trying to decide if we need to get up early and get anything. As of right now, Lilly is back asleep after being up at 4am with sore teeth, and Fitz is out in search of a great deal on a washer and dryer, and I am missing my spin class and swim at the local gym. Oh, well on missing the workouts....December 1st seems like a better day to start anyhow! Wishing everyone a great holiday weekend with family and friends!
