Turkey Day 2008




We had a nice Thanksgiving. Mike, Barb, and Casey and Kristen, Chrissy, Mrs. B and Amber and Ben and Lisa Whittington came. I made the Turkey, dressing, leasuer peas, corn on cob and my second stab at cabbage. Bam made her broccoli rice casserole, it's always good. Kristin brought a cream cheese and sausage casserole, yum. Barb brought that cranberry jello salad and a real salad, sweet potatoes, and turnip greens. We had homemade chocolate chip cookies, a Boston cream cake,2 pecan pies, a coconut pie, isn't that enough?? Oh and my newlywed new neighbors brought over some jumbo shimp. YUM!




What a feast we had. It was good to see everyone but felt like there was a hole in the festivities. Randy, he was missed. He was such a wonderful, kind, christian fellow. I miss him. If the world could strive a little harder to be like hi, what a place this would be.




Chrissy has changed nursing homes. She's over off Linwood and Interloop. I should try harder to see her more often.




The "cousins" on this side are really growing. Emma is adorable and maybe one day she'll let me hold her. She's just out of the hospital with a staph infection. Brooks and beau look like little clones and are so boy.




All in all, we had a pleasant day. Played Skipbo with Mike, Lisa, and Barb. I plan to go shopping in the morning "Black Friday" bargains. Wish me luck...
