It started snowing the night after we moved into our new home and continued sporadically until Thanksgiving Day, four days later. With all the snow on the ground, we were thankful the drive to Elly's house for our traditional Thanksgiving dinner was a short one. We now live only eight minutes away!
The grand kids proudly showed me the snow fort they had been working on.
Thanksgiving dinner was delicious....
...and so was the chocolate pie!
Jim actually ended up spending a good portion of the day on the road. He drove for an hour and a half to pick up Aunt Maurine so she could join us for dinner. She seemed to enjoy the meal and the company.
The ride to Gordon's house with our grand kids afterwards was more than she could take, however. She became so overwrought with all the commotion that it was evident that she needed to go home shortly after our arrival. Jim didn't get much of a chance to visit with his family. What a sweetheart!
