Giving thanks ...

For the second year in a row, poor Mike can't be home for Thanksgiving. The 76 Classic calls and this year Mike has to trek to California for five days to cover it.

Wait.

Last year he HAD to trek to Las Vegas for this tournament.

So, let's start over. For the second year in a row, poor Erinn has to be home for Thanksgiving while Mike gets to enjoy a sunny, warm location that she would like to visit.

I don't mind being home. Truly. I love family time. But I love it a little less without Mike. Especially when Mike gets to go see Mickey Mouse and the Christmas decor at Disneyland without me and Lilo.

Moving on.

Mike gave thanks today for a wife who wanted to make him a traditional Thanksgiving dinner while he watched football and drank beer. We both enjoyed ourselves. Score!

We had our first turkey roasted at the Bungalow along with mashed potatoes with gravy, steamed green beans with garlic and butter, sweet potato casserole, grandma Jane's rolls and pumpkin cheesecake with cream and chocolate sauce:

It was quite tasty. Happy Thanksgiving!
