HURRAH for the day AFTER Thanksgiving!

Well...its the day after thanksgiving and I think I feel even MORE thankful than I did yesterday! Its a rainy gray Pacific Northwest day, our overnight visitors (my aunt and uncle) just left, my fridge is full of glorious leftovers, my kids and I are still in our PJs and talking about spending the day scrapbooking, and my husband (who is again out hunting today) shot a lovely buck yesterday with which to fill our freezer.

So in a nutshell, I don't have to get out of my pjs, don't have to go anywhere, don't have to cook anything, can eat good food till I burst, and have the memories of a lovely Thanksgiving day with family to savor. Yesterday we ate a huge feast, visited, the girls spent time after the meal "dancing" and singing with their uncle and great-uncle, we played scrabble and laughed, watched a Christmas movie and snuggled in to nice warm beds.

All in all a wonderful Thanksgiving! Thank you God for our many blessings!

What a fantastic day! Unfortunately we had a whole weekend like that plus shopping, add that to a Monday spent in town with church obligations and dance, and that leaves a VERY messy house on Tuesday, not to mention 4 very naughty kids who don't want to do their school work. ~K

Sounds good to me! I love those jammie days. I think we shall have one tomorrow. It is my birthday, and I have declared a day off! Methinks we need one! It's supposed to snow here, so we're going to stay in and veg. I'm looking forward to it. I'll have to get myself together at some point, because I think my dear hubby is taking me out for dinner, and maybe to see the new Nativity movie. It looks pretty good. Hope you're having a good week!

Love, Kathy
