turkey day

Being that it is 12 days until Christmas, I thought it was high time to write about Thanksgiving.  We spent the holiday with my dad and his significant other, Cynthia (affectionately referred to as Mimi).  He was getting his Chemo done on Wednesday in Savannah, so while he was doing that we went to visit Grandma and Grandpa. My dad lives about an hour north of Freddy’s parents, so we made the rounds, albeit short rounds.  At our short, but oh-so-sweet, visit with Grandma and Grandpa we ran laps and played outside, picked oranges, played ring toss, played inside and had cookies(of course). We enjoyed seeing everyone, even if just for a few hours.



















Once we got to Dad’s, we had a very nice and relaxing time.  My dad lives on the water, and Ansley absolutely LOVES going to the dock to see whatever wildlife she can.  I think we made about 6 trips in 2 days.  I have to say I love going down there too.  It is so beautiful and relaxing, I think I could rock in the rocking chair down there all day!  On Thanksgiving day, Cynthia cooked everything herself, she absolutely refused my help!  Poor Cynthia, even happily obliged to all of my dietary requirements (no dairy and vegetarian).  After we stuffed ourselves silly with the delicious spread, and watched the requisite Cowboys game, we went to see the new piece of property that Cynthia and my Dad bought (and the exceptionally long dock).  All in all we had a grand old time in South Georgia and we can’t wait to return!
