It's Monday morning but we had our nice dinner Sunday afternoon at Jennifer and Scott's home. Jenn was the excellent hostess as usual and made a really nice turkey dinner. The food was mouthwatering and satisfying and I guess that's why everyone looks forward to having turkey.
Oh my goodness, the mashed potatoes and stuffing were excellent. Jenn let make the gravy which turned out okay.
It was interesting to note that this was Ace's first ever Thanksgiving and he seemed to be as happy and squirmy as usual. The fun part was watching him eat a piece of cake. He loved it of course and that was fun to see. Dara and Nate were more than pleased to watch Ace enjoying himself and being the complete centre of attention. It is amazing how a baby makes everyone feel good.
We also took some time to call Neil in Vancouver. It was a good call. Neil has had a work promotion and was keeping busy. We talked about making a visit to Vancouver sometime later this year. I know I owe Neil a visit.
As the call went on I was interested in the sound of Neil's voice. It is deep and rich and I couldn't help thinking he should have been a broadcaster with a voice like that. Oh well, he could always be a restaurant podcaster some day.
The best part of the day was the family being together to celebrate, to be thankful that we are all well and healthy.
