Turkey, How I loath you

Hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving this year. My family.....well we opted to skip it. Sort of. Look I'm in favor of skipping Thanksgiving every year. I know. I know. I would have made a horrible pilgrim. I know. But I just can't get into the whole THING. We just sit around eating food, I hate turkey that might explain my dislike for thanksgiving, and giving thanks. Doesn't make sense to me. I'm thankful all the time. I don't need one day devoted solely to being thankful. But that's just me. It might also have something to do with the whole "family togetherness thing" it's not well......so fun all the time. I really hate those tense family dinners when you are just waiting for it. Waiting for someone to say something that will set off my Dad or brother and then BAMN! We all have to endure the yelling. AHEM PASS!

Well this year, I worked, Dad Worked and Big Brother worked, so we passed. My mom bought a small turkey (10lbs. doesn't seem small) and made a few things, stuffing, potatoes, rolls, green beans, corn, gravy. Yeah she said she wasn't going to make much. But she lied. She ate alone, while watching tv I'm sure. And my dad and I made ourselves plates when we got off work around 8:30 p.m. Yeah. Happy thanksgiving.

But I hope YOU enjoyed your thanksgiving. And if you would like to see a Pro's and Con's list for Thanksgiving swing by my friends site I will warn you their sense of humor is much like mine....a tad off.
Enjoy your weekend I'll leave you with this little gem. Preggers little boy's first Christmas Photo. I here by declare he will know as heart breaker.

Your honesty is refreshing.. We don't do Thanksgiving here in South Africa.. The little man will definitely be known as a heartbreaker in a few years
