Thanksgiving 2011

Elizabeth was such a great helper today. Any task I put to her she did willingly and quickly. We got the dinner out in record time. The pies were delicious as was her fruit salad. Seemed like everyone enjoyed the meal and no one fell asleep on the couch for a change.
Elizabeth and I had looked at our collection of pictures earlier today. There are a lot of them with Pat sleeping on the couch. Usually after Thanksgiving. She got a kick out of seeing different ones of her mom and Doug when they were young. She was amazed at how many of Myk we had. I had already given Doug and Tanya most of theirs, but I still have Myk's. She said they didn't have very many of Myk and that is probably true. I was amazed at how many of Denise I had. And all her various hair styles over the years. Sometimes the hair style dated the picture. :p
Myk and Cassie opted not to join us this year. Too much drama. I totally understood and didn't feel bad about their choice. That and after last year I am getting used to holidays without my child. I'll take them some pie tomorrow as they requested. I just send out loving thoughts to them. And we are still awaiting the arrival of that baby.
Dave is finally feeling better after being sick all week. Whatever it was I am sure glad that Audrie and I seem to have not gotten it.
