Turkey Day

We had a nice family Thanksgiving this year, which was a departure from the usual. Not the nice part, but the family part. I haven't gotten to spend Turkey Day with both my dad and brother in quite some time. It was a treat to have Brian in attendance, but also as our chef du jour. The food was fabulous, as always, and the company even better. While everyone else clinked their wine glasses in a toast to good fortune and gratitude, I sipped away at my own fancy beverage of choice - sparkling apple cider. Yeehaw.

I have lots to be thankful for, this year and every year. Good health. A loving, devoted husband. A supportive, eccentric father. A healthy brother. A growing bean. Wonderful in-laws. My favorite four-legged friend. Amazing girlfriends. A new job. A pending home sale. Pinterest. Men's sweatpants. Gingerbread Cookie ice cream. The tv show Parenthood. And so much more.

    Are those turkies on your dad's shirt?

  2. Unfortunately, he is just sporting a nice array of pasteled paisley. Turkeys would have been so much cooler. Then again, he recently gave away his American flag dress shirt - to Alex. Don't know if he'll ever be brave enough to sport that thing!
