We ensured that we celebrated Thanksgiving ALL day on Thursday. We all participated in the Turkey Trot in downtown Louisville in the morning and enjoyed free beer, cider, coffee and hot cocoa. The sunshine felt quite nice after finishing the race (and the local beers were nice too).
We got the meal going after we got back - a true team effort: Marshall and Claudia made delicious turkey, stuffing and gravy; the LeBeavys made creamy mashed potatoes; Matt and Tanner made homemade rolls; Drake and Tanner made mac and cheese; Claudia made the cranberry sauce; and I was on green bean casserole.
We all busied ourselves in various ways throughout the day as we waited for the turkey to cook - games, napping, football watching - typical Thanksgiving activities. What a gift to have us all around our table eating on our china. And nothing like wrapping up the night with a little chaos thanks to a game of Happy Salmon.
