We had an absolutely great Thanksgiving. We had a great dinner complete with quality time in the preparation. We had a houseful of friends over for dessert (Thank you Lester and Esther for sharing your family with us.). Grandma Sarah and Esther’s mother talked about their Finnish heritage. The rest of us ate apple pie, key lime pie, flan, pumpkin pie, and who knows what other kind of pie.
Today has been very lazy so far. We got up late, ate a bowl of cereal, hung out at Barnes and Noble for several hours, picked up an iPod cable to replace the one Kelly lost, bought some yarn for knitting Christmas presents, and ate a late lunch at Wendy’s (our favorite fast food). Now everyone is taking a nap. Lorena, Christian, and I are going to run down to the store while Grandpa Milo and Grandma Sarah nap and Kelly knits. There is way too much food in the house. I am going to start the turkey soup simmering before we go. We will eat soup and hang out today with the hope of more of the same tomorrow.
