Thanksgiving: Take 1

As I previously mentioned, I had Thanksgiving at my place this past Friday. Had Doug, the kids, and my friends, Jeremy and Kim at the table! And we had the 'normal' Tday faire. Everyone enjoyed themselves ( I hope) and Jer stayed on later into the night for drinks and chatting with Doug and me.

Oddly, I have just realized that for all the times I've mentioned Jer on my blog, I don't think I've ever posted his photo! Strange! So! Ta-da! There he is!

Michaela left Saturday for a 7 day stay in NC with Ray et al. And Doug and the smalls left yesterday afternoon for a 13 day trip to New Zealand. Grandma is turning 75 on Friday and they are surprising her! Hopefully she doesn't have a heart attack!

I'm thankful for many things, but this week it's solitude!! I have several projects due in the next couple weeks before finals start. Including a paper I have due in 17 hrs that I haven't yet started! So this will give me time to catch up a bit.
