i heart thanksgiving. Actually, usually I am an average appreciator of thanksgiving, but this year was really great. We tried to keep it simple and hung out at one place this year, at my parents, and I think it made the day easier than trying to hit up everywhere. That along with other random things going well made the day pretty good... I was in charge of making the candied sweet potatoes, and nothing went wrong. (personal triumph) I didn't exactly hate my hair, makeup, or outfit. We left the house on time and were not late! we all had plenty of things to be thankful for too... Jeff will be graduating in December, and has accepted a great job in Seattle. Petra was grateful for a backyard to run around in all day, and cousin Owen to play with. I was grateful for my handsome husband. We were grateful for somewhat seasonal weather. and Everyone was relieved that pita was finally showing signs of magical inclination... I also played a whole game of scrabble, while Jeff kindly took Petra with him to get a drink from QT, and didn't come in dead last. There was a lot of pressure too, what with my mom threatening to bite me if I stole her word and all... (those who know Renee know that this is hilariously out of character) yeup. i hearted thanksgiving this year.
