This is us just before Thanksgiving dinner. Yes, the turkey is taller than me. Yes, his chin looks like Jay Leno's in this picture but not in real life. He's such a cute dork.
There were 16 of us gathered for a Thanksgiving feast yesterday. Before sampling the bounty we went around the room and each person said what they were thankful for. The toasts, prayers and speeches were personal, some emotional, and all were heartfelt. It was one of those Hallmark moments complete with candlelight. Drew broke the mold when it was his turn, though: "I'm thankful for humor and cheese." Forget his mother. Forget a warm bed and a roof over his head and someone to nag him about his homework. Forget his grandparents that spoil him mercilessly. (I'll say it - thanks, grams and gaps!) Nope. He's thankful for humor and cheese. Sigh. Needless to say, he got lots of laughs and extra helpings of cheese at the table.
