Gobble, Gobble, Gobble

We had a great Thanksgiving today, complete with all the fixins! This morning, we made the stuffing, prepared our 20+ pound turkey while listening to Alice's Restaurant (and thinking of Mike and Sandra). While everything cooked, we played outside a bit (the weather here was in the 60's!) and, once Grammy and Grampy arrived, played with them too! We had a delicious mid-afternoon meal, followed by some resting, followed by pumpkin cheesecake and chocolate cake for dessert (no pies in this house!), followed by some playing outside. It was fun, fun, fun - and the girls were so worn out that they were both asleep by 6:30. This year, we are so thankful for our two beautiful little girls, our family and good friends, our health and lovely life, and all of the other blessings that have been bestowed upon us. Happy Thanksgiving.
"God is great, God is good, let us thank Him for our food. AMEN."
Believe it - picture evidence of the first O'Connor to make a non-potato stuffing at Thanksgiving. I actually felt guilty and apologized to my mother....but the French Canadians like their meat stuffing, what am I do to?

The leaves are still falling here in Connecticut

Grammy and Grampy brought stuffed animals for the girls
