Thank-full Thanksgiving Day

Last night's small family dinner was a success.  Brett and his lovely wife Emily and my youngest son Wesley were able to join us.  The turkey was tender and flavorful, the pumpkin cheesecake was a big hit, and I actually remembered to serve everything I'd planned to serve (which is a minor miracle).

Riff was pretty sure I was supposed to put the turkey platter on the ground for him....

But of course the dogs had a super nice dinner, too.  :-)

Today we head to Joanie's house for dinner with friends.

GRATEFUL for all life has brought to us:  All of the challenges, the love, kindness and laughter, our cherished family and friends....and good stories. 

Wishing you the Best Thanksgiving Ever!!
