THANKSgiving

Originally we thought we might be celebrating Thanksgiving as our small family unit.  But COVID disrupted my brother's plans to come be with my parents, so we were able to make it happen to be with them.  I have to admit, it wasn't a normal Thanksgiving.  I was pretty nervous about going up to my parents, because we all had been in school the previous week.  The last thing I wanted is to ever give my parents "the virus".  

After asking my parents multiple times if they were okay with it, we ended up going up and it was so awesome.  Della made quite the yummy spread of food, and they GOT US 3 different kinds of pie.  SPOILED much.  We did wear our masks the whole time, except for when we were eating.  They also had fans going, and windows opened.

I CAN'T wait to bring back the holidays where everyone can be together and there isn't this fear that someone could give someone a horrible virus.  That would be really darn nice. BUT until then...we used these Thankful mats as placemats, and it was so adorable to see what the kids put on them!  Talk about a year of remembering what you are thankful for!

Love,
Mom
