We got a free turkey a couple of years ago like that. Froze it and cooked it in July. Invited friends and family over for Thanksgiving in July. So thankful we did. Amy is no longer with us. Passed away December 31 2020, not covid. She was 40, pg, and her heart stopped. But they saved the baby. So thankful I got to see Amy July 2019!!!!
Oh, how sad. But glad that you could have the memory of a wonderful July Thanksgiving with her.
This is the best reason to cherish Holiday dinners. We never know when, or if, we will see all these loved ones again.
