Thanksgiving weekend.

We just got back from a rather hectic Thanksgiving "tour".

Started out with a drive out to Bob and Judy's to spend Thanksgiving day with Julie's mom and dad, along with Scott, Tom, Tab and Annie and 2 of her boys, Dash and Chase (sounds like a track and field event!).  Of course, I didn't get around to taking my camera out so you-all will have to trust me that we ate a wonderful meal (Turducken) and had a great visit.

On Friday, we headed south.  There was a baby shower planned for Jill and Josh on Saturday so we decided to combine that lovely event with a visit to our great pals, Dan and Terri. Had a fun time and I even got to win at a game of OH HELL which is one of my favorite card games.

Saturday morning we headed over to Trimont to attend the shower.  Julie went with the gang to the church while a few of us boys hung out at Tim and Belva's farm watching college football and enjoying a lovely fall type day.

After the Shower, Julie and I headed to Fairmont and grabbed a room at the Holiday Inn which has a nice swimming pool.  Julie was soooo happy to host her kids and grand kids and we had a wonderful evening .. went out for a nice meal and Finley and Sienna had a great time in the pool.

After the swim(s), the kids all headed back to the farm.. Jewels and I flaked out fairly soon after and had a great sleep.  On Sunday, we headed back to Duluth (about a 5 hour drive), and are looking forward to a 15inch dump of snow in the next day or so.

All in all, a lovely weekend.. got to see a lot of good peeps, and....


Life is Good
