Thanksgiving

It was a good one. There were thirteen of us for dinner yesterday: my parents and sister, grandmama, aunt and uncle with three cousins, and my Aunt Lynn and two cousins. It was quite a feast with turkey and ham, stuffing, cranberries, mashed potatoes, gravy, butter beans and corn, rolls (about 90 of them...) and pie! There was a pumpkin pie, chocolate chess pie, cherry pie and a Kahlua pie. Seriously good times people, seriously good times.

It was great seeing my Aunt Lynn and two cousins, Andrew and Carly. I haven't seen Aunt Lynn since I was christened at 6 months old and I've never met Andrew and Carly, who are twins and my age. They live relatively close too so I can go and visit them and they me.

Of course there has been a lot of shopping, first at Kohl's and then today Melissa bought a new cell phone so I now have her old one which is an Envy or something like that. Whatever, it has a full keyboard which is pretty spiffy. We also saw Bee Movie today and it was cute. It was a lot like Toy Story in the sense that it was enjoyable for both kids and adults and that it was completely void of reality. Good times.

Tomorrow is the big Berry (mothers side) Bash at a country club in Richmond to celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'll be seeing A LOT of people there I haven't seen in a long time or have never met. More good times.

Then Sunday and Monday will be spent in Washington D.C. seeing the sights and Tuesday the family goes home.

What a week this has been! Be ready for more pictures and details of all the funness to come!

Pictures!
