Turkey Day!

So far, we have had a fantastic holiday!

On Tuesday, Katherine and I headed to Dallas to avoid Thanksgiving Wednesday traffic. Doesn't seem like a big deal to some people. But when I was in college, it would take me 3+ hours to drive the 100 miles from Wesleyan to Mexia. I swore I would never do that again... Anyway, I digress. Since Frank was still in Granbury, Kathy fixed my favorite meal of hers....chicken alfredo. It was SOOO good. We had a lovely evening watching Dancing with the Stars.

On Wednesday, Kathy (after being admonished by her office) took Katherine to KinserBates, LLP for a play date. This gave me the morning off. I ate chicken alfredo at 9:30 in the morning, took a very long time getting ready and read my book. It was heaven! Once they got home, Kathy and I began cooking. See, Kathy's sister, Sherry, has returned from England and is back in the States permanently. Now why she insisted on also hosting Thanksgiving, I don't know. But Sherry wanted to so we cooked all the sides and she cooked the turkey and mashed potatoes. Kathy and I conjured up about 8 different casseroles, salads and pies. By the time Frank got to us that evening, we decided to order a pizza and were in bed by 9. Party animals...

Thursday was a wonderful day of family, food and general merriment. Sherry hosted a lovely Thanksgiving. We got home by 5:00 and everyone needed a nap.

On Friday, we again relaxed. I got my nails done. Katherine and Kathy relaxed at home. Poor Frank had to work. boo.

This morning, we are just hanging out! Lisa and Tatum are on the way from Austin. Later a tea party has been painstakingly planned by Katherine. oh boy!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
