Anything But Gray

Talk about neglect!
My gosh…

So Thanksgiving was FANTASTIC. Aside from the stupid bridge I had to drive over to get to and from Saco, Maine, it was awesome. And there was a minor issue in the morning that left me crying at my dining room table, but I got over it and the day went fantastic!

We went to my mother's cousin's house. (Are those apostrophe s's right? I am so bad with those…) I have met her maybe once in my life. lol. But all my family went…me, Zak and Thing 1 and Thing 2, my sister, Gabby and Trevor (Rick had to work..) Billiejo, Mikey and their kids, and my Auntie Phyillis. So it was not an awkward I-have-no-idea-who-these-people-are thing. It was wonderful. We ate, watched football, played football in the street….me and my 3.5 inch heel boots felt that the next day, but I can't resist throwing a ball around….we visited and drank and I got to say grace! Until my cousin Billiejo said to me from across the table…."Jo, it's grace, not a sermon." Ha!! And I really wasn't even going on and on….yet. LOL Totally cracked me up. I love that girl.

But I was so very thankful and I couldn't say it enough. Thankful to be part of my family's Thanksgiving. Thankful that my kids were so excited about Thanksgiving. Thankful for the beautiful sunshine. Thankful that I could drive 2 hours and go to another state! (aside from the bridge….) Just thankful and happy to be where I have wanted to be. It was a wonderful holiday and I already can't wait until next year. Yeah, it was that good!

I wound up not taking pics with my camera but we took a bunch with Billiejo's and I'll get some posted a little later.
My mom has them and she is getting them to me today.
