Thanksgiving Coma

Good Afternoon Everyone!

We are all suffering from food comas today,

but it certainly was worth it.  I was so exhausted

after cooking for mostly two days, doing a 

little decorating, and all the little things you

need to do.  Things like getting your serving

pieces out and ready to use, napkins ironed,

setting the table, a flower arrangement for

my big turkey soup tureen.  All the things that

I traditionally do and I so love doing it all.

We had a large group all gathered together

and it was wonderful.  The grandchildren

are tiny now.  I don't know what we will do

when they all need a chair at the table.

Oh, well, I'll worry about that another year.

XXXXXXXXXXXX

I just have to share this precious photo.

This was the first time Avery had seen his

little cousins.  It was so sweet to see how

much these little girls wanted to be with

him.  They were so excited, but I think it

was too much excitement for Avery.

Just look at how little Addyson and Piper are trying

to console him.  Addyson is about 2 1/2 and Piper is

about 9 months.  It is unbelievable how they reacted

to him being upset.  Of course, when he drops his

bottom lip, we all just melt.  Cameron, our son, was the

photographer again.  His timing was just perfect.

XXXXXXXXXXXX

Well, it will be back to work tomorrow for me, but

I am going to enjoy having them for one more day.

Hollis and and Paul will be leaving in the morning

and the house will feel so empty.

I hope you all enjoy the rest of the Thanksgiving

holiday.  

Many Merry Stitches,

Sandra
