Thanksgiving

We had a lovely Thanksgiving this year. My sister and her family visited and my folks were here too. It was a full house with lots of crazy kids running around. Three boys and one girl meant many Nerf wars and hundreds of bullets on the ground. The kids played an epic multi day game of Monopoly with Papa. Good times.

The wind graced us with its presence so kites were able to be flown. Greta did particularly well keeping hers in the air.

The precious pup, Rudi, was here a lot and was introduced to our crazy clan of canines. He did great and played well. It was very difficult to photograph the pup without him moving....I was happy to get the second picture below. The only one out of 20 without him moving.

I felt the need to try some non meat options for Thanksgiving this year. My sister and I are both plant based so I went in search of a Tofurky for us. I found one at Whole Foods (along with a Field Roast variety). I put them both in the crockpot and served them up for the big meal. They were not good, I'd say barely edible. Oh well! It was worth a try. Back to eating all the delicious side dishes (that's all I really like anyways).

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
