Turkey, pies and blessings!!!!!
Well, if I'm counting....that would be one, four, and too many to count!!! :-) Life is great!
Check out this "e-greeting" from American Greetings, if you haven't seen it, yet.
We are now officially on Thanksgiving Holiday break! Matt and I both had school yesterday and today, while our three offspring were home taking it easy. Tomorrow, we'll load up our goodies for the feast "and go over the river and through the hills to the Grimsley we house we go!" I get to cook the turkey, make pies, mashed potatoes, cream corn. My sister, Penny, and her family moved into their new home 2 weeks ago and my family and our parents will be there for Thanksgiving. We are hoping for lots of good eats (always!) and some card games, maybe a movie or two, and some marathon "day after" shopping. My other sister, Ronda, will be joining us for the shopping event.
My college girls came home Friday night and it's nice having them home. I think it's been an adjustment for Rachal. Maybe a bit boring?? She's in the kitchen now baking a pumpkin jelly roll cake. Rebecca has been spending a lot of time with her "friend", Walter, and helped his mom paint her bedroom and bathroom the last 2 days.
Well, I can't think of too much more to say, now. The Christmas holidays will be "on us" soon....I heard my first radio Christmas carol today. The radio station 106.5 is "East Texas's Christmas radio station!" Whoo hoo! Jingle bells, already! :-)
Hope you have a great holiday. Wish we could be with all our "loved ones", but that's not realistic. Gobble, gobble, gobble everyone. Love ya.
Glad to hear the news from East Texas. Know you will enjoy your time with your family. The hustle bustle is fun, even if we get TIRED sometimes. I'm headed to the kitchen now to begin the bird wrangling and baking!! LOVE IT!! Think you'll be in KC over Xmas? Just wondering! Enjoy! Blog the winners of the card games! What do you guys play? We play canasta, golf, hand and foot, and Mexican train when we go home. Will try to play with the girls if we can stand them. lol Take care. LOVE YA!
