Happy Thanksgiving!

I wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving! Manderz, I'm thinking of you as you cook today (and being thankful that I'm not cooking). Becky, James, Nicole, and Sarah we miss you terribly. As I sit here, all the aunts are scurrying around the kitchen. Lisa is mashing potatoes, Debby is dressing the salad, Linda is making the carrots and garlic green beans, and my mom is tending to the turkeys. Sherry has actually just escaped to the family room to play with Jules, but that's okay since she's provided so many delicious pies. Kathy will soon be walking through the door with her cheesy cauliflower (and three grandsons in tow) and Kris has gone over to put the rolls in the oven. (Beck, she took your job!) Liz, Zack, Jen, and Emily are sitting in the family room chatting and enjoying the turkey aroma. We can't wait to dig in.

And yes, there's enough stuffing to sell on the street.

I hope you all have fabulous Thanksgivings (or had, in the case of Becky who is half a day ahead of us) and that we'll see you for Christmas.

Becky, we are now up to 13 dozen rolls. That is 156 rolls for about 35 people. That is over 4 1/2 rolls per person and since the adults didn't eat many I am sure more than one grandchild consumed them at record pace!
