Thankful, Happy and Lucky

Happy Thanksgiving to all! 
A week of rest from the daily grind allowed me to fully enjoy life's delicious details.  We hosted Thanksgiving at our new home, honored by the presence of Grandma Linda, who traveled all the way from Idaho to be here for Thanksgiving.  Lucky for me, everyone else in my family enjoys cooking, so a mere salad and some fall-themed mantle decorations were my big contributions. With mom here, my sister and I were able to comfortably regress back to teendom, lounging about the living room watching The Wizard of Oz while mum slaved in the kitchen.  She likes it that way though,  promise. 
Our culinarily-gifted husbands joined grandma in festive preparations, while the little girls disappeared into Fairyland each day.  Lucky for us, they returned home by nightfall to provide evening entertainment on the backyard castle-stage. Each moment together was filled with love, humor, and gratitude. ♥

More Thanksgiving here.
