Have a Wonderful Thanksgiving

It's raining cats and dogs. Has been for a couple of days. It pours and then it lets up and then it pours again. Everything is soaked to the roots and way beyond by now.  Supposed to stop overnight and be dryer tomorrow.

With the time change it gets dark so early. Last night I thought it was about 10 p.m. or so and I was shocked when I looked at the clock and it was well after midnight.

Last week 10 members of my family got together to eat and to celebrate the 9th birthday of my great niece Kaylee. Here's part of us all in the photo below. We believe in being comfortable! I am the tennis shoe on the left.  My nephew was a little worried what people might think about us all standing in a circle in the restaurant parking lot! He said people might think we were crazy or something. I told him it made no difference what they thought and it only took a few seconds to get the picture.

I enjoyed it. It's always so nice to visit with the family. I think we are going back to the same buffet restaurant for Thanksgiving, at least some of us are.  I'm looking forward to that and I'll do my best not to over eat. Ha! No promises though!!! 

Meanwhile, I hope that everyone out there has a wonderful blessed Thanksgiving. The current church sign that I take so many photos of has this sign up now;

Get rick quick.
Count your blessings.

True words for sure. 

Here's my wish for your Thanksgiving as well (and mine too!)

May your stuffing be tasty


May your turkey plump,


May your potatoes and gravy


Have never a lump.


May your yams be delicious


And your pies take the prize,


And may your Thanksgiving dinner


Stay off your thighs!
