Well...I'm back! I did a lot of the meal - the turkey and the rolls and my two pies and setting it all out. Bilbo did the mashed potatoes and the dressing, and Dad did the gravy. Everything was good! We also had plenty of wine available...
We didn't eat until about seven, so I'm still full! Time to relax for a bit.
We had a couple of friends over from church. So it was just the seven of us. Wife's sister and family came over later.
We are thankful today that God spaced our children 10 years apart (she has three, 6, 4, 1 1/2)
D's kids and grandkids brought this to Thanksgiving.
Would any of you who've met Gidget bring this to an event that Gidget was gonna be at?
LOL... It was almost bad, D's six year old grand-daughter walks in the door today all proud of her bird sitting on her finger. Luckily and with much quick intervention, the bird was not murdered. But Gidget was fixated and had to spend much of the day in the truck.
The parents would ask - "Does she have to go to the truck even if we set the bird up on a table or something?" I'd say.... "Have you ever seen this dog lung at the television at the mere IMAGE of a bird?" I said... "Not a good idea."
