Well, maybe it was 6:30. Potatoes peeled. Card table and chairs out of the closet and table clothes on. I brined the turkeys. Pretty good. Maybe a little salty. Caitlan made roasted broccoli and cauliflower, butternut squash ice cream pie with gingersnap crust and her home-cooked pumpkin pie. Also a spicy pumpkin buttered rum drink that was yum. Rachel arrived early to help. Thank goodness–I couldn’t get the cleaning done yesterday because the satellite tv man came to hook up Mombo’s new tv in her bedroom. Jerusha, Alyx, and Kyle (Dave) set the table, and Bub arrived early to carve the turkey. 24 people around one table. Grace said by Kyle (Miller) and Rachel. Weather was beautiful. People hung around just to talk. Some men went to the shooting range. John and Dana called from California. They are having a wonderful time with Dana’s brother and family. Mom had a very good day. I am thankful.
