An Arizona Thanksgiving

While most of the country endures cold and freezing weather this time of year, we, in Arizona, enjoy beautiful 70 degree weather.  It feels like the holidays to us because it's not 110 degrees outside - to us, it's cold.

With two of my children out of state, Thanksgiving was very quiet with just Cyndie, Tim and Seamus and Neal, Krista and Berkley.  It was nice and unrushed. 

Every year I use the pewter napkin rings Melissa gave me

One of the few times I get to use my China.  I still love this delicate pattern. (Noritake - Savannah)

I also used this tablecloth I got when we were in Greece.  There was this place in Greece where women embroider tablecloths and the market was outdoors and there were millions of tableloths to choose from.  I wanted more, but had to limit myself to two because they were VERY expensive.

Even though it was in the 70's, had to have a fire for ambiance

Berkley was going through the ads to get ready for black friday

Caught Krista in midbite.  Seamus looks bored wearing his helmet (he has to wear it for a few weeks because his head is a little misshapen.



Wake up, Gramdpa!

Let's go play outside!
