The Day for Giving Thanks

1. A lovely Thanksgiving dinner with my family, even if the gravy I made was a little lumpy and thick. I blame it on all of the grease floating on top of the drippings. Sorry Rick.

2. A beautiful day. It was 80 degrees here in Southern California today. We got some great pictures of our family for our Christmas card.

3. Cooking with my parents. I know that I mentioned cooking with my mom yesterday but I really do enjoy working in the kitchen together. It's a nice bonding experience for us.

4. Piper's cough and cold are almost gone.

5. Piper is loving all of this playing outside - maybe a bit too much when she decides to go in the front yard unsupervised. It's making me look forward to possibly living here someday.
