Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is pretty much tied with Christmas for my fave holiday. It is the start of the Christmas season (remember...it is a season, not a retail fiscal quarter!) and there is less stress and commercialism than Jesus' Birthday.

I love getting together with my family and hanging out, talking, laughing, playing and enjoying each other's company. Our loved ones out of town are close in our hearts. Drew loves it too. His favorite things in the world are his family and eating! So it's win-win for him too.

I will be posting pics of the Indian Headresses and Pilgrim hats I am requiring everyone to make before they can eat. We did this a few years ago, and I am looking forward to 100% participation this year.

Toonces, our cat, has taken quite a shine to Drew lately, as he has to her. I think they both miss Rufus. :( She will lay by him now, and he reaches out to pet her. Yesterday, she made herself at home on his lap while he was getting a drink! He didn't mind at all! I hope you all have a blessed Thanksgiving--we are very thankful for our family and friends!!!

Is it just me, or...

Are you also wondering what a cat looks like in Drew's shirt??

Is it just me, or...

Michigan...will the last one out PLEASE turn off the lights.

Rock the Vote

Election day is one of my favorite days of the year. I am a complete dork, I know. I have a great appreciation for the periodic table of elements too.

Anyway, THE THEORY OF DEMOCRACY PRESUPPOSES AN INFORMED CITIZENRY. So, ROCK THE VOTE Y'ALL!!!! you still have an hour and a half if you haven't voted yet. It's worth it. No posting would be complete without a pic of Boogie, so here is one of him enjoying aunt Terri's pool in Hilton Head. We can't wait to go back!!

Drew's expressive face

Chris got these pics of Drew as he was talking to him---he was trying to answer sooooooo badly! It's gotta be so frustrating for the kid--considering his lineage of big mouths. LOL :)

I would like to think he is saying: DO YOUR RESEARCH AND VOTE TOMORROW!!! Our soldiers are fighting to keep this the land of the free, home of the brave, so do your part and take a few minutes out of your day to vote!!!!

He is probably saying "Dad, You are the best! I love you!"
