Thanksgiving, Indeed

Uncle Bill shut it down with a perfectly cooked Thanksgiving turkey this year. I'm usually neutral on the turkey, but I had two helpings. The other culinary highlight was a life-changing pecan pie from our guest Peggy.

Thankgiving makes me wonder why we don't eat Reddi-Whip all year round? One good dollop is only about 30 calories.

Sweet Oliver (above, with Aunt Emily) slept in his car seat almost the entire afternoon, finally being extracted during the last hour for some passing around by various interested parties. With all the food, football and fuss going on, Logan didn't nap at all and Wills napped only for a short while. Aunt Emily exacerbated the situation by planing "howler monkey" with them. It was very chaotic and yet I'm not sure we would want it any other way (well, except for faux-pa, who looked a little overwhelmed toward the end). Happy first Thankgiving, Ollie.
