It's been a while and really without an excuse. I need to develop better habits in writing. In any event, Thanksgiving was a busy and wonderful day. Everyone was here and everyone was healthy. The morning dawned brisk and sunny. In fact, the morning sun gave the opportunity to catch the last bit of leaf color available. Most of the leaves are down (save the oak and a few stragglers) and have been taken away by the City to who knows where ... perhaps a mulch pile for the future?
The morning began particularly early for Aaron, Rebbecca, and Kiera who completed their "2nd Annual Turkey Trot" over a 3 mile measured course. Sometimes running is helped by a "helping hand."
Kiera liked the one showing both of her feet off the ground at the same time. The stroller suggests that both of the feet may have been off the ground before the photographer arrived.
When finished, there was no panting from the runners although the photographer was breathing a little heavier since it was time to "run" to Dulles to collect Amy.
Aaron helped with the fire
and the table was readied by Sheila, including
edible decorations (not to include candles and wicker).
While others rested there was one who was thinking ahead to Christmas and red and green decorations to replace those of brown and gold.
Was a wonderful day with family and a wonderful weekend followed. Next visit will be the National Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony.
