Anyone else have a GREAT Thanksgiving Day?

My kids and their kids all came over.  And we received the wonderful news that my daughter is pregnant and due in July.  Grandchild number 6!!!!!

Holidays sound fun at your home! Congratulations! I worked a 24 hour shift on Thanksgiving actually.  I'm 22 hours into it as I write this... but me and the boys had fun!

Good morning George.  I had a wonderful Thanksgiving day.   My 2 kids and I had a feast here at home and then we just chilled. I cooked a turkey, dressing, beans, pumpkin soup, and my son's favorite old fashioned chocolate pie.   Today, we will go to my sister's for a bit and then another afternoon of CHILLING till we go bowling tonight! 

Have a great weekend!

 

I know what you mean.  My kids and I live near (my son is 7 miles away, my daughter 25 miles), but we don't get together that often.  We talk a lot on the phone, but all under one roof is reserved for holidays and some birthdays.  Normally, we are together for about 2 or 3 hours and then someone has to leave.  On Thursday we all hung around together for almost 6 hours. 

   Mine sucked ..  Alone as always ..  This time, instead of the usual turkey T.V. dinner at home, I thought I'd go out to a  fancy hotel buffet (the Marriott) to co-miserate with other loners , since now I'm a "mobile" post-op ..      The experience was even more depressing .. there was almost no one there .  and the food items were SO limited (no wonder it was only $25 vs. as much as $75+ at other hotels!), except for the desserts .. it was more like a self-service T.V. dinner with a salad bar added ..  I felt so depressed then I did something stupid and decided I wanted to try a little sample of all of the desserts before I left   --  I ate them too fast, something stuck and saliva started backing up in my throat  .. I ran to the bathroom and  &;-o~~ ~ ~  for the first time since surgery (is there such a thing as post-op bulemia???)  ..          No - it was not how I imagined my first T-day since surgery would go, 15 months earlier  ..  (well my second, the first time @ 3 months out I had a single slice of turkey and a few bites of stuffing and taters at home)   &:-/)
