Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was lovely although I didn’t remember to take any pictures. We started the morning at 7:30 with the Turkey Trot at the Zoo along with my Mom and Rita. Rita ran the four miles – good for her. Graham and I walked. And my Mom sat out with a sprained ankle, which she had injured earlier that week. The last quarter mile was through the Zoo with a finish by the Elephants. I loved it! After our energized morning we headed to my Mom’s for lunch/dinner and more snacking…Graham had purchased a 17lb bird, which we brined the night before. We had and a delicious meal with a ton of leftovers that our cats (who we brought along for the feast) helped us eat all weekend. Unfortunately, everyone but Graham (lucky guy) had to work Friday, so it was an early evening and we ended the day being lazy and watching movies.
