Who wouldn’t want to spend Thanksgiving week doing this?
The weather didn’t cooperate as much as anticipated. A bit windy and cool for the beach, but we still enjoyed our time together under the clouds.
Later we strolled beach shops, and one of us escorted a sophisticated lady.
Others of us cavorted with pirates.
And later yet, we played some games.
One evening we visited at Aunt Lori’s house with Grandma.
The next day we adventured on daring feats.
And, traveled to distant cities.
On the holiday we celebrated with great thanks for the time together and bountiful meal.
Later, we built a tree,
and opened surprise gifts found underneath.
We ended our time together marveling at our fine work.
How grateful I am to have had the opportunity to make and share memories with those I love.

It was a bit cool that day, but much warmer than your beach. 🙂 It was so great to see the kids experience it for the firs time.

As you can see, no bundling here. It was cool when my family was here, light jacket weather. Since they left, we’ve been getting record high temps nearing 90. Feels more like July. I’ll try to fan it up your way. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by, Andy.

Thanks, Carrie. So many holidays have been quiet, just hubby, dog and me. This one was the kind I always dreamed of during those quiet ones. Thanks for stopping by to check it out.
