THANKSGIVING
My Thanksgiving had a split personality. But for now, lets just talk about the good. It started out as a great day. We spent dinner at my Uncle Bob's and Aunt Diann's house. We planned on having Thanksgiving dinner there because it would be easier for Curtis, but he decided to spend Thanksgiving with his Dad in Colorado. We were disappointed to not have him with us, but I was so happy that he was able to travel and visit with his family that aren't as lucky as we are. They don't have the pleasure of being able to visit him on a daily basis. I admit I did worry about him traveling by himself, but he made it there and back safely. We still had plenty of loved ones with us during dinner. There was the four of us, Ronnie, Ethan, Sophia and myself.Uncle Bob, Aunt Diann, cousin Danielle & Bree, my mom, Jess, my brother J.D., Kenna, Uncle Eddie, Aunt Theresa, cousin Tony and his girlfriend, cousin Richard and his wife Becky, cousin Kallie, her boyfriend Nick, and her three kids. It was a great dinner, with lots of great company and conversation. And most importantly...LOVE!After dinner, Ronnie, the kids, and I ventured across the street to Ronnie's Grandparents house. We had the pleasure of visiting his Grandparents, Ronnie's Dad, Aunt Debbie, Uncle Roger, cousin Keith and his wife Carly (with baby on the way, Veronique), Ronnie's sister Tina (with baby on the way, Justice) her boyfriend, and his nephew Chance.After visiting for a few, we made our way back to Bob and Diann's house, where the crowd had thinned. Some were playing Wii and others were visiting. Diann and I decided it was our chance to sneak away to catch a showing of Twilight!I have to say I was both pleased and disappointed with the movie. There were parts that thrilled me, but other parts that were so far from how I imagined it, that I was discouraged. I guess that's how it always is when you read the book first and are so anxious for the movie.
