. . . thankful #25 . . .

. . . thanksgiving day . . .

. . . is that redundant? . . .

. . . being thankful for thanksgiving day? . . .

. . . because i am . . .

. . . here's how amanda and i started the day . . .

. . . at the neighborhood turkey trot . . .

{or bike or skate or jog or walk or wog}

. . . take a look at just a few of the folks

who show up for such an event . . .

. . . then there's the food . . .

{i actually had really easy assignments today}

. . . my mom is such a great cook . . .

. . . we look forward to her dressing every year . . .

. . . legendary . . .

. . . but the best part about thanksgiving

is the people . . .

{proof that i was having fun? no pictures}

. . . neighbors, friends, children, grandkids,

brothers, sisters,

cousins, aunts, uncles, grandma . . .

{i missed my dad today}

. . . we caught up with each others' lives,

we laughed, we played, we ate . . .

. . . and naps . . .

. . . let's do it again next year . . .
