Family Togetherness

 We hope everyone had as nice a Thanksgiving as we did!!  It was also Frank's birthday, so we did the festivities for him first with presents and a card...he looks pretty happy!

 Peter and his girlfriend Catherine...

 William...

 My beautiful mom was glowing with her entire family around her...

 Kara with her Oma...

 Kara with her Opa...

 Frank and me...

 And the turkey...

 Frank carving the turkey with a hopeful Maggi doggy that something will drop...

 Peter, Kara's boyfriend Ben, Kara and Will enjoying the feast...

 More than enough food to go around, and the turkey that Will brined was so tender and delicious...

After dinner, the kids decided to play a game, while the rest of us relaxed in the living room...after a bit of break, we ate homemade pumpkin pie made by Catherine and Peter...then we were stuffed for sure!!  Such a nice Thanksgiving had by us all!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Whether you need to travel far or near, here's hoping you share the day with family and friends and be thankful for one another.

You Have to Have One of These...

From coffee house It's A Grind, the new Tea Latte Press!!!  So delicious that I can't wait to go back and try another one!!  Flavors are Black tea, Green tea, and Chai tea.  I had the Chai, and it was so aromatic!!  The cup acts like a coffee press...after about 3 or 4 minutes, depending how strong you like it, you push in the plunger until it "clicks" into the lid.  Then WITHOUT taking the lid off, enjoy!!!  The best Chai tea I've ever had!!!
