The One With a Happy Thanksgiving

 

 

 

Thanksgiving has arrived again. And with it, another fun filled Thanksgiving Day. This year, we did some standard things and some new things. 

1. We watched the Macy's Day Parade.

2. We had a small breakfast.

3. We played several games, including Smart Ass for the first time. This is a GREAT trivia game.

4. We had an amazing meal.

5. We watched our standard "Miracle on 34th Street," to usher in the season.

All in all, it was a great Thanksgiving!!!

The One With Thanksgiving

 

 

Today is Thanksgiving 2022. And, although we've had a lot of changes in our family, we have a lot to
be thankful for.

 

Today was definitely not a traditional Thanksgiving, but it was a fun one nonetheless. It began with the kids having a band performance in Gloucester for the annual Gloucester - Danvers football game. It was the last official performance of this half-time show, complete with Music of the Night (from the Phantom of the Opera), Here Comes the Sun (the Beatles) and so on. It was a fabulous finale.

 

Then, we came home and had snacks while we watched a recording of the Macy's Day parade. Emmie realized she DVRed the wrong one - it was good, but the the one with performances. But, we finally found one of Peacock.

 

Then, we took a walk in the neighborhood.

 

After that, we began work on our Thanksgiving meal (which is actually a roast this year). We are still cooking it as I write this at 7:10 PM. We also watched a Friends Thanksgiving episode from the past, too.

 

This year has a few new traditions - and is a little odd - but we loved it nonetheless.

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

The One With Thanksgiving

 

Today is the 400th anniversary of what we call the traditional Thanksgiving Feast in America (the Pilgrims held their feast sometime in autumn 1621.) 

In honor of that, I have a short list poem called What I Like About Thanksgiving. 

 

Family time

Feel so fine

Pumpkin pie

Air so dry

Pilgrim prayer

Smells in air

Cranberry

We're so merry

Turkey's roast

Cheery toast 

Time to rest

Day so blessed

 

 

Wishing all of you a Happy Thanksgiving !!!

The One With the Happy Thanksgiving

We had a fun and lively Thanksgiving week this past week.

We had Emmie's family Thanksgiving on last weekend.

We had my family Thanksgiving this Thursday.

We had watched the Macy's Day Parade.

Emmie went to Black Friday.

It was a busy...but fun Thanksgiving.

The One With The Happy Thanksgiving

Yesterday was Thanksgiving 2017. We had a great day.

Our actual holiday started on the weekend with Emmie's family party...which was fun. We had a great turkey and wrapped up with a Candy Cane Hunt. It was a wonderful day!


Yesterday, we woke up around 7:00. I went for a brief job and we took care of a few things around the house. Then, we had a light breakfast, which was a nice way to start the day. We kicked back and watched the Macy's Day parade...which is always great.


After that, we headed to the Cape for Thanksgiving at Mark's house, which was fun. We got to see the extended family, which we haven't seen in some time. It was a great visit with excellent food and some great pies.


We brought my mom back in the evening and then settled back here. This was a fabulous Thanksgiving.
